Timeless Elegance, Desirable Lifestyle

New Zealand Sotheby’s International Realty is proud to present Hawthorne House, one of Hawke’s Bay’s most remarkable lifestyle estates. Currently operating as a highly regarded 5 star boutique accommodation retreat, it offers an exceptional opportunity to secure an extraordinary home with the added potential for lifestyle and income.

Set across 5.4 hectares of established gardens and rolling paddocks, this magnificent villa, dating back to circa 1906, has been meticulously renovated to combine timeless character with modern luxury.

Inside, beautifully preserved native timberwork and colourful stained glass sit alongside bespoke cabinetry and considered contemporary design. Bathed in natural light, the home feels elegant yet inviting, with generous spaces equally suited to family living and entertaining.

At its heart, the gourmet kitchen features marble benchtops and premium appliances, flowing seamlessly to covered verandahs and outdoor living. Formal living and dining rooms provide further space for entertaining throughout the year.

Five spacious bedrooms each feature built in wardrobes and beautifully appointed ensuites, with peaceful garden outlooks and access to private outdoor seating areas. Central radiator heating provides year round comfort, while a guest powder room completes the main residence.

Adding further versatility is The Mews, a fully self contained three bedroom home positioned privately to the rear. Ideal for extended family, guests, staff or independent accommodation, it provides flexibility rarely found in a property of this calibre. A dedicated office and substantial laundry add further practicality.

The grounds are equally impressive, with manicured gardens, productive potager gardens, an orchard, sheds and flat grazing paddocks suitable for horses or livestock. Numerous outdoor spaces provide peaceful places to relax and enjoy the surrounding landscape.

Located just 10 minutes from Havelock North and 30 minutes from Napier, Hawthorne House is within easy reach of Hawke’s Bay’s wineries, golf courses, beaches, restaurants and renowned lifestyle attractions.

With the vendors committed to their next move, this is a genuine opportunity to secure an exceptional family estate, established accommodation business or an enviable Hawke’s Bay lifestyle.

Hawthorne House is a property that needs to be experienced in person to fully appreciate its character, quality and sense of place.
