37 Rochfort Street, Otane, Central Hawkes Bay

In what is a highly sought after rural locality, along the desirable Tukituki River valley 25-30 minutes from the beautiful golden sandy beaches of Kairakau and Pourerere; 25 minutes of Havelock North, 10 minutes from the rural township of Otane with local primary school or better still, 6 minutes from the iconic Patangata Tavern and renowned trout fishing spots - your new life in the country could not be sweeter. The easy contoured land encompasses 5,800m2 or 1.433 acres where one can enjoy all the pleasures of country living, including a lovely rural outlook. This manageable bareland parcel is the ideal size for children to enjoy a sense of freedom, have a few pets, and perhaps you could make the shift to sustainable living by establishing a vegetable garden and orchard. The simple covenants on the now issued title allow for both a new built or relocatable home, old or new, something that's very much a rare find in today's market. Purchaser's will be required to supply and install their own rain water collection and storage; and septic system.
