Space, Views & Country Calm

This 3.6 ha (more or less) bare land lifestyle block sits in the attractive new Braehead rural development on the outskirts of Otane, with Waipawa and Waipukurau only minutes away and Hastings or Havelock North an easy half-hour commute. The groundwork has already been done, with an established entrance, driveway, fencing in place, and water available for stock and gardens. Braehead has been thoughtfully designed to make the most of the natural contour of the land, providing elevation, privacy, views and shelter, with extensive specimen tree planting that will continue to enhance the setting as it matures. Power supply will require a connection through Centralines.
The property comes with protective covenants designed to maintain the quality and appeal of the subdivision. These outline standard requirements for new builds, including an engineered wastewater design, and acknowledge the surrounding rural environment, meaning normal farming activity is to be expected. Easements are in place for power and water access, and the covenants help ensure the area develops in a consistent and attractive way for all residents.
Otane itself is a thriving, welcoming village with plenty on offer. Enjoy a coffee or something sweet at the popular Henry's Pies & Café, meet friends at the local pub, or pop into the dairy for everyday essentials and tasty takeaway options. The community is family-friendly with a great preschool and a relaxed country feel, making it an easy place to settle in and feel part of the neighbourhood.
Local amenities add even more appeal. Otane School is close by, with Central Hawke's Bay College only a short drive away and a school bus service operating in the area. There are also bus options for schooling in Hastings, giving families further choice. The Tukituki River and nearby east coast beaches offer excellent fishing, swimming and recreation, while boutique Waipawa provides essentials including the brand-new Four Square, great cafés, and the famous Waipawa Butchery. With so much already in place, this property is ready for you to book the builder and start planning your new lifestyle.
