Positioned at the eastern edge of the Omaka aerodrome with views across the airfield to hills and distant mountains, and a nearby riverside park with tracks and cycling, this unique freehold property offers the opportunity to live and breathe aviation, all within walking distance of cafés, bars, shops and services.

Discretely located on opposite sides of the living space, each big bedroom comes with its own bathroom and deck access. Behind the hangar, an attractive low maintenance garden includes an orchard and a lawn with pop-up irrigation and a robot lawnmower.

The Marlborough Aero Club is very active and the Omaka airfield, famous as the home of Classic Fighters Downunder, is strategically located, provides fuel and greets numerous planes from all around New Zealand. Next door, the Aviation Heritage Centre features Sir Peter Jackson’s personal collection of memorabilia, and an extraordinary array of WWI and WWII aircraft set in impressively lifelike displays crafted by Weta Workshop. The region boasts an extensive aeronautical infrastructure with Airbus and several specialised restoration and maintenance services on hand.

This property is ideal for aviation enthusiasts looking to live above their aircraft, for business or tradespeople needing storage or a workshop at home or to offer hangar space and overnight accommodation beside a runway in New Zealand’s sunniest region.
