Imagine what could be!
Come take the time to wander, look beyond and discover a property that's filled with possibilities and imagine what could be!
Tucked away down a quiet street in the charming village of Ongaonga, this much-loved family home sits amongst 4,288m2 (1.05 acres) of rambling cottage-style gardens that tell a story of years of love, hard work and tender loving care. An incredible array of established trees, shrubs and rustic country flower beds create a wonderful sense of discovery, while citrus trees laden with delicious grapefruit and oranges, beautifully arranged vegetable gardens and hidden treasures offer a glimpse into what was once a magnificent garden setting. There's plenty to bring back to its former glory, but what a head start! And beyond the gardens, a huge back paddock offers room for a few pet lambs, chooks or maybe even a pony!
Step inside the family home and discover a whole other world of possibilities. Four bedrooms and spacious living areas provide plenty to work with, while decades of happy family memories have left behind a home with real heart. Yes, there's work to be done, but there's an even greater opportunity to breathe new life into this once much-loved home. A massive storage shed and workshop offers an incredible amount of space for hobbies and projects while an excellent bore water supply is another great bonus.
Nestled in the heart of the picturesque village of Ongaonga, renowned for its historic origins and peaceful country setting, you're just a short stroll from the local primary school and general store. Waipukurau and Waipawa are approximately 15 minutes drive, while Hastings is an easy 45-minute commute, making this a wonderful spot to raise a family and enjoy a quieter pace of life.

How we worked this out
| Council valuation, Sept 2024 | $210,000 |
|---|---|
| Market movement in Central Hawke's Bay District since the council valuation | −1.9% |
| Apartments and houses in Central Hawke's Bay District | −0.1% |
| How Ongaonga sells against council values | −1.6% |
| Homes in this price range | −0.4% |
| Land as a share of the value | +0.6% |
| Our estimate | $203,000 |
We start from the council's rating valuation, move it by how sales in the area have moved since against their own council values, then by how properties like this one, nearby sales have done against the same arithmetic. Each step is an average of real sales. Tested every month against sales we had not seen: half land within about 6% of our estimate, and about 8 in 10 within the range. This is an automated estimate, not a registered valuation.

If it is yours, claiming it puts the council record, the title and what it costs you to hold in one place — and lets you put your lending, insurance and power out to people who compete for them.
Free. Takes about a minute.
We check your name against the registered owner on the title before a claim is accepted. Nothing on this page changes for anyone else, and no provider is contacted until you ask.

What could you build here?
See whether a granny flat fits beside the house: the Building Act exemption, the national granny flat rules and the zone’s own. Then ask builders to price the shape you pick.
