Description
Set across 6.5 ha (more or less) in the heart of Haumoana’s coveted lifestyle region, this remarkable property blends modern rural living, versatile income streams, and premium infrastructure. Delivering the perfect balance of space, privacy, and functionality, it presents an exceptional opportunity for families, lifestyle buyers, and astute investors. Constructed in 2019, the primary residence is thoughtfully designed and positioned for sun and seclusion, complete with an additional double carport. Stylish yet practical, it
features polished concrete and soft carpeted flooring, a designer kitchen with scullery and twin ovens, and expansive open-plan living that flows seamlessly to the outdoors. A second lounge adds flexibility and opens directly to a large in-ground saltwater pool, perfect for entertaining or unwinding. Ducted central heating/cooling, double glazing, tiled bathrooms, and a primary suite with a walk-in wardrobe, en-suite, and patio access. Two further double bedrooms share the family bathroom, while the large laundry doubles as a mudroom for added convenience. Enhancing the property’s versatility is the fully self-contained two bedroom apartment, renovated with an updated kitchen and bathroom. Currently a high-performing Airbnb, it delivers strong seasonal returns. A fire-rated wall separates the apartment from the shed. The property is exceptionally well equipped for trades, hobbies, or business use (subject to council approval), featuring substantial shedding with one triple-bay shed offering double-height clearance and another double-length triple-bay shed/garage. Rooftop solar panels provide immediate cost savings, and three-phase power supports heavy-duty equipment. A private driveway, concrete parking pad, and generous off-street parking ensure easy access and ample space for all the toys. A significant bonus is the established orchard, currently leased to provide secure, passive income with minimal input required, an attractive long-term asset. The property also benefits from an excellent water supply via a bore, which is consented for irrigation, ensuring reliable water for the orchard and grounds. Located just minutes from the coast and a short drive to Havelock North, Hastings, and Napier, this lifestyle property offers modern comfort, income potential, and rural serenity. Opportunities of this calibre are rarely available. Purchase price is plus GST (If any). Contact Vaughan or John today for more information or to arrange your private inspection.

Next steps for moving to New Zealand
Interested in this property? Here's how to move forward.
Understand the buying rules
Foreign ownership laws vary wildly by country. Some welcome you, others restrict or ban foreign buyers entirely.
Sort out your visa
Owning property doesn't give you the right to live there. Research residency options before you buy.
Plan your finances
Understand currency risk, international wire transfers, and whether you can get a local mortgage.
Know your tax obligations
US citizens are taxed on worldwide income. You'll need to file US taxes from abroad and may owe local taxes too.
Set up healthcare
Medicare doesn't cover you overseas. You'll need international health insurance or a local plan.
Run the full checklist
Banking, mail forwarding, power of attorney, pet import rules — the complete pre-move checklist.
