79 Squire Drive, Te Awa, Napier, Hawke's Bay

A Rare Sanctuary in Te Awa Estate - Timeless Character, Space, and Self-Sufficient Living! Nestled among million-dollar plus homes in the prestigious Te Awa Estate, this one-of-a-kind villa is a rare find, rich in character, beautifully upgraded, and lovingly lived in. Warm, welcoming, and full of heart, this home has been the heartbeat of family life for years, a place where gardens thrive, memories are made, and every space feels like home. Relocated to this site over a decade ago, the home was extensively upgraded at the time with new piles, roof, plumbing, and wiring giving you the charm of a character villa with the confidence of modern improvements. Proudly elevated on 600mm high piles, it sits solid, strong, and ready for its next chapter. Positioned across a generous 1029 square metre (more or less) fully fenced section, the property offers the best of lifestyle living with plenty of space, privacy, and the joys of self-sufficiency. For the green fingered, this is paradise, with established gardens, fruit trees, 18 raised vegetable bins, and two greenhouse tunnels that provide an abundant harvest year-round. Inside you are instantly welcomed by the villa's timeless charm, high stud ceilings, intricate handcrafted detailing, leadlight and bay windows that fill the home with warmth and character. The flexible layout is perfect for families of all ages, featuring four bedrooms plus office, two separate living areas, and three bathrooms. The master bedroom opens out to its own decking and includes an ensuite with a wet shower. At the hub of the home, the spacious kitchen and dining area is designed for entertaining and family life. Stone benchtops, large double ovens, a walk-in pantry, and a plumbed-in fridge/freezer and two dish draws create a dream space, perfect for everything from weekend feasts to quiet breakfasts. Outside, there's ample room for all the family's needs, with a separate double garage and secure off-street parking, plenty of space for all the toys. What truly sets this property apart is the rare combination of character, modern comfort, and space-surrounded by quality new homes, yet offering the mature gardens and timeless charm that are increasingly hard to find. Ideally located close to the Napier CBD, zoned for great schools, it delivers the complete family package. More than a house, this is a home with soul, timeless, solid, and ready to welcome its next family. If you're searching for space to grow, gardens to nourish your soul, and a home rich with character, look no further you've found home. Viewings by Private Appointment via Tania
