Low-maintenance Living in the Heart of Mapua
Two bedroom properties in Mapua are seldom available. Built in 2004 with 99 sqm floor space, this home offers two double bedrooms with built-in wardrobes, an open-plan dining and living area, and a bright kitchen with plenty of cupboard space. A large shower room and separate toilet complete the picture.
Well insulated and maintenance free with brick and coloured steel roofing and a sunny westerly aspect keep it warm and light, with a deck and patio off the living area for easy indoor-outdoor flow.
The fully fenced garden makes the most of its 320 sqm - a generous mix of lawn and planting for a central village location, with off-street parking. Practical features include an office or utility room converted from the original garage.
Positioned in the heart of Mapua Village within a short 5-minute walk to the village shops, restaurants, bars & cafes, niche shops and Mapua school, this is the perfect home for anyone wanting to downsize, first-time buyers, small families looking for a low-maintenance footprint, or investors drawn to Mapua's enduring appeal.
Deadline sale closes: Wed 4 Nov, 4pm (Unless Sold Prior).
We estimate it would sell for $649,000 as at 5 October 2026, in a range of $583,000 to $738,000.
How we worked this out
| Council valuation, Sept 2023 | $630,000 |
|---|---|
| Market movement in Tasman District since the council valuation | +2.0% |
| How Māpua sells against council values | −0.7% |
| Homes of this age in Māpua | +0.1% |
| Homes in this price range | +1.4% |
| Land as a share of the value | −0.3% |
| Nearby recent sales (15) | −1.3% |
| Its own sale in 2017 | +1.8% |
| Our estimate | $649,000 |
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 and its own last sale 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.

Building consents
We hold no building consents for this property yet. The council may hold records we have not seen.
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.
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.
Zoning and hazards
What the council's published maps say about this land. A map is a model of a storm, not a record of one: a LIM or a flood report says more.
Reading the council's maps…
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.

Counts describe the records we hold for this territorial authority, not a market forecast. Our estimate above is automated, not a registered valuation; how it was reached is shown with it. Every council figure on this page can be checked against the council's own record.
The OwnBetter estimate is our own, from sales and council valuations, and is not a registered valuation.

A single search across NZ property records finds other titles in your name and in companies you are a director of. Most owners find at least one they had forgotten was held somewhere else.
