646 Wakarara Road, Ongaonga, Central Hawke's Bay, Hawke's Bay

Set beneath the Ruahine Ranges, just 18 minutes from town, 646 Wakarara Road delivers the kind of lifestyle that feels distinctly Hawke’s Bay, space, established grounds, practical shedding and a home that has been thoughtfully upgraded for modern living.

Greeted by a nostalgic tree lined driveway, you'll experience the feeling of home. A standout transformation has taken place at the heart of the home, with the house extended to make way for an extensive kitchen renovation. The result is a generous, light-filled living zone anchored by a statement waterfall-edge island, with new windows and doors throughout this space creating an easy connection to the outdoors.

That connection continues through to the outdoor entertaining area, a great spot to unwind, enjoy the birdsong, host friends or simply take in the rural setting beneath the snow-capped ranges. Inside, a fireplace brings warmth through the cooler months.

The home offers three bedrooms, two bathrooms and a dedicated office zone, while the master bedroom has also benefited from new windows and doors, bringing in more light and strengthening its connection with the surrounding landscape.

Outside, the lifestyle is already well established. There’s a fruit tree orchard, productive vegetable garden and even two resident pet chickens, along with two paddocks providing space for animals or simply room to enjoy.

Practicality is equally well covered. A large carport adjoins fully lined and powered multipurpose storage rooms, offering flexibility for hobbies, a workshop, extra storage or whatever your lifestyle requires, while tandem garaging adds even more useful space.

With the hard work already done, established grounds ready to enjoy and the Ruahine Ranges forming an incredible backdrop, this is country living without feeling disconnected.

Just 18 minutes from town, you can have the space, the outlook and the lifestyle, without giving up everyday convenience.
