230 Loop Road, Takaka, Tasman, Nelson / Tasman

Set on just over 2 acres (8557sqm) of lush Takaka land (rural A1), this four-bedroom property is one of those rare, do-up opportunities where the location is already magic, and the rest is yours to imagine. Whether you’re a seasoned renovator, an inspired first-home buyer ready to roll up your sleeves, or someone seeking a slice of country calm to start fresh, this one’s got the foundations and the freedom to make it yours.

Framed by mountain views and rural quiet, the existing home is honest and full of heart, a classic weatherboard build with solid bones and space to spare. Inside, the layout is simple and functional: a long hallway runs through the centre, with all four bedrooms tucked neatly at the back. One of these opens directly onto a sunny deck, while another could be easily transformed into a home office, creative nook or guest space.

At the front of the house, the kitchen, dining and living room form the social core. The kitchen includes a cosy wood burner and direct access out back, while the separate living area - with its own fireplace - opens to the yard through French doors, inviting the outdoors in. A generous bathroom with tub and laundry facilities adds everyday ease.

Outside, the grounds are green and sprawling, dotted with sheds, a standalone garage, and a few rustic surprises (including a curious old outhouse). Raised decks wrap around parts of the home, while mature trees and hedging offer privacy and shelter. There’s room to grow your own food, build a bigger dream, or simply sit on the porch with a cup of tea and soak in the views.

Located just 10 minutes from Takaka township and schools, and a short drive to Pohara Beach, the Waitapu Wharf and Golden Bay’s natural gems, it’s rural living with convenience in tow.

Don’t miss the chance to reimagine something special in a setting that’s already unforgettable.
