Some properties offer more space. Others offer more flexibility. Very few offer the opportunity to completely rethink the way your family lives together.

Set on approximately 2 hectares in the quaint, rural community of Hira, this unique lifestyle property brings together 2 fully independent homes in a setting that encourages connection without compromising privacy, or independence. Whether it's parents and adult children, grandparents wanting to stay close, siblings and cousins living collectively, or simply the desire for more room to grow, this is a property designed to adapt as life and family circumstances evolve.

Built in 1973, the original family home has been well maintained and embraces its peaceful rural setting, with almost every window framing views of established trees, greenery, and rolling paddocks. Offering 3 spacious bedrooms, a generous living room warmed by a cosy wood burner, and an open-plan kitchen and dining area, it's a home designed for relaxed family living. Double glazing and a heat pump provide year-round comfort, while the large garage and attached workshop are complemented by a separate rumpus room complete with its own toilet and washing-up facilities. Whether it's a space for teenagers to retreat, a hobby room, a home gym, or a workshop where you can tinker, it's a practical addition that gives the home even greater versatility.

Built by Endeavour Homes in 2004, the second residence complements the original family dwelling beautifully. Designed with modern living in mind, it features a light-filled open-plan kitchen, dining and living area that forms the heart of the home. The 3 generous bedrooms include a primary suite with an ensuite, while a family bathroom, dedicated office, and internal-access garage provide the modern comforts and practicality today's families appreciate. Full double glazing throughout, paired with a log burner, ensures the home remains warm, comfortable, and inviting year-round.

Outside, the lifestyle continues. Gentle rolling paddocks provide endless opportunities, whether you envision grazing a few animals, creating mountain bike trails for the kids, establishing gardens, or building stables for horses. Wander through your own native bush walk lined with mature ferns, enjoy the nearby Wakapuaka River, or simply appreciate the peace and privacy that comes with having space around you. A ride-on mower is included, making it easy to keep the grounds looking their best.

While Nelson's CBD is only around 20 minutes away, much of what makes this location so special is right on your doorstep. School drop-offs are refreshingly easy without the city traffic, with Hira Kindergarten and Hira School just a short 5-minute drive away. The Hira Store is perfect for everyday essentials or an ice cream on a sunny afternoon. Meet friends for a drink or meal at the Nelson North Country Club, spend weekends riding the trails at Cable Bay Adventure Park, or head to Cable Bay for a swim, sauna and beach picnic. It's a lifestyle that offers the perfect balance of community, convenience, and connection to the outdoors.

Opportunities to secure 2 quality homes on approximately 2 hectares are incredibly scarce, particularly in a tightly held community like Hira. Interest is expected to be strong, with Tender closing at 12:00pm on Friday 4 September. Make time to view the property and complete your due diligence now, so you're ready to put your best offer forward.
