1079 Ellis Wallace Road, Eskdale, Napier

A peaceful retreat with heart

Situated down a scenic rural road, you'll find something truly special - a place where time slows, nature surrounds, and every day feels like a retreat. It's peaceful, private, and far enough from suburbia to feel like you've escaped the world, yet you're still within twenty minutes of local amenities and under thirty to the city. You are also just a few minutes away from the Esk Valley River where you can take the family and pets for a cool dip.
Set on 4.5 hectares, this much-loved property is a testament to care, dedication, and country living done right. The current owner has poured heart and soul into both the land and the home - planting a new orchard that promises seasons of fresh fruit and future abundance, and lovingly maintaining the spacious, split-level home that sits perfectly positioned to take in the tranquil views across the superb dam, complete with a mai mai.
Inside, the home's thoughtful layout makes everyday living easy. Upstairs you'll find a bedroom and bathroom, alongside sun-filled open-plan living that captures sweeping rural views which are perfectly framed by the corner kitchen windows that make even meal prep a joy.
Downstairs, three more bedrooms and a family bathroom provide ample space for everyone, while the primary suite offers a peaceful retreat of its own, complete with ensuite and direct access to the spa deck - an ideal spot to unwind under the stars.
There's room here for everyone - children can roam freely, ponies and pets can graze the easy-contoured paddocks, and the established Kanuka provide both privacy and a haven for birdlife (as well as firewood for the winters ahead).
At the end of the day, unwind on the deck and listen to the quiet - no traffic, no crowds, just the sounds of nature and the satisfaction of living life on your own terms. And when you do need a dose of civilisation, everything you need is still comfortably within reach.
This is more than a property. It's a lifestyle built with love, a peaceful haven waiting for its next chapter.
We would love to see you at the open homes and will run them for 45 minutes, but please leave in plenty of time as the property is perfectly situated for peace and privacy approximately 17 minutes from the turn off to Ellis Wallace Road.
Going to auction soon, with a highly motivated owner ready to move on - opportunities like this do not come along often. Come and see what makes this lifestyle retreat so special.
