104 Tollemache Road, Longlands

Set across approximately 4,085 sq m in a peaceful position between Hastings and Havelock North, this distinctive 1920’s property brings together enduring character, modern comfort and genuine income potential. Just five minutes from Hastings Central & Havelock North, it offers the space and tranquillity of country living without leaving everyday convenience behind.

Surrounded by mature trees, gardens and productive plantings, the beautifully updated main residence has warmth, personality and an immediate sense of home. Its original character has been carefully retained while substantial improvements including re-piling, re-wiring and re-plumbing provide confidence for the future. Partial double glazing, insulation above and below, additional wall insulation in selected areas and a recently repainted roof further enhance its year-round comfort.

The open-plan kitchen, dining and living area is the inviting heart of the home. Stone and granite benchtops, excellent storage and wide bifold windows opening to an outdoor servery make entertaining effortless, while the adjoining deck and covered outdoor spaces extend everyday living into the garden. An authentic Portuguese wood-fired pizza oven and integrated outdoor heating set the scene for long lunches, relaxed evenings and memorable gatherings with family and friends.

Inside, warmth is assured by a Pyroclassic wood burner, heat pump and gas heater. Three bedrooms include a privately positioned main bedroom with a walk-in wardrobe, accessed beyond a cosy second living area that offers a quiet retreat from the main living spaces. Dual Infinity hot-water systems and fibre internet add further practicality, while the north-east-facing front veranda provides a peaceful place to begin the day amid established gardens and native birdsong.

A separate self-contained cottage with an en-suite is currently utilised as Airbnb accommodation, creating an established supplementary income stream or an appealing option for extended family and guests. Further income potential is provided by the substantial shed of approximately 160 sq m, featuring an impressive stud height of approximately 3.6 m. Part of the building has been partitioned and is currently tenanted, with separate driveway access from the corner site maintaining privacy between the commercial space and the main residence.

An original heritage shed of approximately 120 sq m, together with an attached second carport, provides valuable workshop, vehicle and storage space. This combination of buildings gives the property exceptional flexibility, whether for business use, hobbies, accommodation or additional income.

The grounds are as productive as they are picturesque. Established avocado, feijoa, citrus, olive, stone-fruit and pip-fruit trees are complemented by raised garden beds and a thriving asparagus bed, creating an excellent foundation for a more self-sufficient way of life. Mature shelter belts provide privacy, while the generous grounds offer room for children, animals and gardens to flourish.

Serviced by an independent bore-water supply and septic wastewater system, this is a compelling lifestyle property where character, productivity and opportunity exist in equal measure. More than simply a place to live, it is a property from which to earn, grow and create an exceptional way of life.
