48 Iona Road, Havelock North, Hastings, Hawke's Bay

With distinctive 1970s architecture at its heart, this thoughtfully updated home blends character, privacy and easy everyday living, ideal for families with teens or young adults. Raked ceilings, angled rooflines and classic detailing add personality throughout, while the established, park-like gardens create a calm setting and an easy walk from the village and within convenient reach of Iona College and Woodford House.

A wide tiled entrance leads to the family hub: an open-plan kitchen and dining area flowing to a covered terrace and paved barbecue courtyard, great for busy weeknights and relaxed weekends. The modernised kitchen, new carpet, and underfloor heating on the ground floor support comfortable living across the seasons.

The main living room links with dining and opens via French doors to the in-ground spa, perfect for unwinding together. A second living room can be closed off as a teen lounge/media space or quiet retreat when everyone needs their own space.

On the ground floor, the generous primary bedroom includes an ensuite with spa bath and excellent wardrobe storage, plus a guest powder room and a handy coat cupboard by the entry. Upstairs, two double bedrooms, a family bathroom and a separate toilet give older children independence and make morning routines smoother.

Practicalities are well covered with three heat pumps, a gas fire, gas hot water, and an internal-access double garage, completing this appealing home in one of Havelock North’s most desirable locations. Outside, a hidden dog fence keeps pets safely within bounds without interrupting the outlook.

If you’re seeking space to grow, character, and a peaceful garden setting close to top schools and the village, this home fits beautifully.

A Builder’s Report and Hastings District Council LIM are available to interested parties.
