6 Awatea Terrace, Hokowhitu, Palmerston North, Manawatu / Whanganui

Welcome to one of Hokowhitu’s best-kept secrets — a beautifully presented, super-sized family home set in a lush green setting on a generous 1,075sqm section. Surrounded by established trees and quality homes, this is the kind of property that rarely comes to market. With the Manawatu River, Victoria Esplanade and the golf course all nearby, you’ll enjoy a peaceful, family-friendly lifestyle in one of Palmerston North’s most coveted suburbs.

Designed with families in mind, the home spans an impressive 286sqm with timeless charm, sophisticated style choices and multiple living spaces. The family-sized kitchen is light and inviting with gas hobs, modern appliances and lots of bench space for easy meal prep. It connects beautifully with a sunny dining space which has fabulous accordion-style doors that spill out to a private sun-soaked deck - the perfect place to entertain while looking out over the beautifully landscaped backyard.

This exceptional home also boasts a formal dining area or second living, as well as a generously sized separate lounge with a fireplace for the cooler weather. Two large double bedrooms and a family-sized bathroom (with a wet floor shower and grab rails for accessibility) complete the ground level, providing a practical and versatile layout for families of all shapes and stages.

Upstairs is a true standout — a master retreat that feels like a private getaway. With dramatic high ceilings, exceptional views and your own private balcony, it’s a calming and light-filled space you’ll never want to leave. The ensuite includes a spa bath, and the bonus upstairs living room opens out to an even larger balcony. Whether it becomes a luxurious extension of the master suite, a work-from-home haven or a third lounge, this additional space gives you even more flexibility.

Outside, the private grounds are nicely landscaped with a charming covered patio, lush lawns and quiet corners to unwind. It also has a separate garage, and plenty of room for kids, pets, or pottering in the garden.
