180 Ngaruru Road, Ongaonga, Central Hawkes Bay

Aviation enthusiasts country retreat

Well suited to an equestrian operation, calf-rearing, contracting business, or a
wonderful lifestyle family home to enjoy.

Rarely does a property come to the market with its own plane hangar and private 450m airstrip. The house was built in 1993 by the current vendors who were farmers of repute and have a lifetime experience of flying light aircraft. Nothing is out of place and the practical modifications and attention to detail with maintenance over the whole 5.4086ha (STS) mini-estate is apparent.

Built on an existing site of a grand old homestead 27 years ago, the driveway leads to the
established setting, including the original steps which have been incorporated into the private established mature lawns and gardens which includes commanding views to the Ruahine Ranges and the sunny aspect to the North.
The two-storey home offers charm and comfort with an extensive, gable-ceilinged, open-plan
Kitchen/Living/Dining Room with double doors opening to the patio; four double bedrooms with views, three bathrooms, office with patio access and separate laundry. The large double garage offers access to the house via the laundry with large fourth bedroom and bathroom above.

In addition to the bird-proof hangar, set up for easy one-man access to the strip, and
constructed using steel roof girders, with all its storage and potential alternative uses, there is a four-bay, concrete-floored shed, set up as woodwork workshop to delight a purchaser wanting to spend time being creative or this building could be used for numerous alternative country pursuits or storage. Ample water is supplied to the property via a 30m private bore.

180 Ngaruru Road, is situated 2.7km from the picturesque, historic village of Ongaonga, 19km from Waipukurau and 60km from Hastings. The welcoming ambience and observation of attention to detail cannot be ignored. Bayleys Real Estate feel privileged to be marketing this special property in the search for someone perhaps with similar passion and interests as the current owners.
