68 McElwee Street, Jervoistown, Napier City, Hawkes Bay

Standout, modern homes, begin with a clear vision, space to breathe, room to grow and a design that intuitively supports everyday living. In one of Jervoistown’s most sought after pockets, this architecturally designed residence (CCC issued 2021) settles naturally into its beautifully flat 2,551sqm (approx.) section, offering semi-rural ease just minutes from Taradale and the city centre. Positioned at the end of a no-through street, and bordering reserve land, the setting offers an uncommon level of privacy with only a handful of neighbours. It is the kind of environment families seek out, and where those coming off the land immediately feel at home with outlook, elbow room, and a sense of freedom preserved. Spanning 284sqm (approx.), the home is shaped with intention. What resonates most is the balance, openness where it matters, separation where it serves. The central family living space rises with an impressive high stud, creating volume, calm and an easy sense of togetherness. Expansive glazing draws daylight deep into the home, framing the greenery beyond and lifting the entire space. The designer EDK kitchen becomes the natural centre of daily life; beautifully appointed, highly functional, and flowing through to covered outdoor living that surveys the full sweep of the section. Mornings unfold slowly here. Summer evenings linger. The transition between inside and out feels effortless year round. The dual wing layout brings real foresight. The adult wing, set privately to one side,

features a generous master suite with a walk-through wardrobe and a refined ensuite. Its outlook across the broad lawn adds a layer of quiet that makes the end of each day feel intentional. The secondary wing welcomes family or guests with ease. Three double bedrooms follow a sunlit, glass lined hallway, culminating in a secondary living room ideal for movie nights, play, creativity, or configured as a fifth bedroom if required. It is a floor plan that evolves with you, giving everyone room while keeping connection at the centre. Practicality is equally considered. A spacious, efficiently designed laundry includes additional storage for active households. The lined double integral garage offers versatility; warm, tidy and ready for vehicles, workshop projects, gym equipment, or the gear that comes naturally with a lifestyle sized section. Outdoors, the U-shaped architecture embraces the land, creating a sheltered, private core while opening clear possibility for the future a swimming pool, expansive gardens, orchard planting, additional parking, or further shedding. The canvas is generous, and the potential is real. This is a home that understands how people live; intentional, welcoming, beautifully proportioned, and positioned in one of Hawkes Bay’s most coveted semi-rural locations. For families and those who’ve enjoyed a lifetime of farm-like living alike, it offers space, calm, craftsmanship and opportunity a rare combination this close to town. A considered
