Are you dreaming of a lifestyle where the past meets the present, and rural tranquillity embraces endless possibilities?

Nestled in the heart of Otakeho, a true slice of Taranaki’s heritage awaits. For the very first time in 33 years, this beloved character home, set across three titles, is ready for its next chapter.

Step inside and discover a warm and inviting haven. With three comfortable bedrooms and one bathroom, the open-plan kitchen, dining, and lounge creates a seamless space for family life. Thoughtful touches like a mix of charming timber joinery and modern double-glazed aluminium ensure character without compromising comfort. You’ll stay cozy all year round with ceiling insulation and a log fire equipped with a heat transfer system. And imagine those power bills with electric hot water and solar panels on the roof!

But the true heart of this home extends outdoors. Sprawling onto an extensive, sheltered, and private decking area, this is your ultimate sanctuary. Imagine unwinding with a cold Gin and Tonic, surrounded by loved ones, as you relax and reconnect.

Beyond the home, this property embraces the rural dream. Divided into seven well-maintained paddocks, it’s the perfect setting for sheep, chooks, ducks and even a friendly goat. Cultivate your own produce in the large vegetable garden and raised vege boxes or enjoy fresh fruit from your extensive orchard.

And then there’s the historic Otakeho General Store. Established by Hubert James Eaves, this iconic building, though now derelict, remains structurally intact and holds incredible potential. Perhaps a creative workshop, an art studio, or a unique guest space – the possibilities are as vast as your imagination.

Practicality meets charm here, with a double garage currently converted to a workshop – easily reverted to garaging if desired – and plenty of off-street parking. All of this, set against a backdrop of stunning, unobstructed mountain views that will take your breath away every single day.

Located conveniently at the corner of Surf Highway 45 and Dingle Road, you’re just a few minutes past the historic town of Manaia – home to Yarrows – and a short minute drive to the Hawera town CBD.

If you’re seeking a unique lifestyle property, brimming with character, history, and the potential to create your dream rural haven, then this is the one to see. Don’t miss this rare opportunity to own a cherished piece of Otakeho. Your Lifestyle Awaits.
