If houses could talk, this one would share a rich history. Built in the 1930s from solid native timber, this grand old girl was truly built to last. Her stunning hardwood floors have already been lovingly restored—a beautiful foundation ready to be shown off.

Now, she waits for a family with vision, enthusiasm, and that crucial can-do attitude (or a can-pay-someone-to-do-it attitude—both are welcome!). This is your chance to finish the story.

Originally two 2-bedroom attached homes, she was relocated and united on site around 2004. Today she offers :

• Four bedrooms and a massive open-plan living/kitchen/dining space spanning the full width of the house.
• Scope to design a luxe master suite complete with a walk-in wardrobe and ensuite.
• Gorgeous Waihou Valley views—the kind that make your morning coffee taste better .
• 4999m² section (just shy of a lifestyle block) featuring a separate double garage, established fruit trees, and gardens. Just add chickens, a trampoline, or a yoga deck—the space is yours to define!
• Minutes from Okaihau township for quick errands, school pick-ups, and a browse through the village. School bus access to Okaihau Primary School and College is a bonus.

Yes, she needs some work. You will accumulate paint swatches and strong opinions on tapware. But imagine the reward: a character-filled family home with soul, story, and seriously good bones.

Forget the soulless, cookie-cutter new builds. This offers genuine charm, scale, history, and boundless potential—all wrapped up in a setting that immediately feels like home.

Bring the tools. Bring the vision. Bring the family. Finish this beautiful revival.
