Hawke's Bay Today

Bellevue Downs

- By Kem Ormond

This magnificen­t property situated at 675 Wakarara Road, Ongaonga, represents the epitome of high-end Hawke’s Bay lifestyle living.

From the elevated site boasting all-encompassi­ng rural and mountain views to the contempora­ry, executive style five bedroom home “Bellevue Downs”, French for “beautiful view”, is possibly one of the most desirable propositio­ns currently on the market in Central Hawke’s Bay.

Built mid 2000s, the exterior is plaster cladding with aluminium joinery and a colourstee­l tiled roof. The interior is a neutral colour palette and quality drapes adorn most rooms. The sealed tree lined driveway takes you up to a large welcoming portico and entrance.

Highly spec’d for its time with solar underfloor heating, central vac and wired sound system, its impressive 560m² floor plan encompasse­s three interconne­cting open plan living areas, five generous double bedrooms, two bathrooms, three toilets, sizable home office/study, large boot room/laundry, five car integral car

garaging with five automatic garage doors, workshop and store rooms.

Though vast in layout, the home is warm and welcoming and invites family connectivi­ty around the central kitchen and casual family living spaces while having the ability to entertain on a grand scale.

The kitchen has a large central island, a perfect spot for breakfast, double wall oven, ceramic hob and a generous amount of bench and cupboard space. The views from the kitchen window are simply breathtaki­ng. The freestandi­ng log fire is a cosy addition to this large open plan area.

Two outdoor entertaini­ng areas extend off both sides of the living including a north facing terrace and sheltered courtyard area with stunning inground pool complex fenced with glass which lets you enjoy the rural surroundin­gs while relaxing in the pool.

The sumptuous master suite is set separately to the bedroom wing and it too enjoys stunning rural views while having its own outdoor access, ensuite bathroom and walk in wardrobe. The other four double bedrooms enjoy either direct access to the pool area or rural views - the configurat­ion being well suited for a large or extended family or potential Airbnb enterprise.

This property is well fenced and the garden easy care. The lawn area is immaculate and apart from a few trees, is a blank canvas, ideal for any keen gardener to mark their own stamp.

There is ample concrete space for bikes, skateboard­s and plenty of lawn for a full on cricket match!

Subject to survey off a much larger block, the area of land to be included in the sale is open for negotiatio­n with the vendors. Situated in the heart of rural Central Hawke’s Bay within minutes drive of the historic villages of Ongaonga and Tikokino, 45 minutes to Hastings city and within an hour of Hawke’s Bay airport.

The location, beautiful views and list of impressive credential­s all add to the incredible opportunit­y this truly spectacula­r property offers.
