32 Bell Street, Ōtāne

From the street, this property gives away absolutely nothing about what lies behind its walls. Step inside and prepare to have your expectations completely rearranged. Somewhat reminiscent of loft-style apartment living, this is a space that doesn't follow the normal rulebook. Big, bold and undeniably funky, yet with a certain warmth and cosiness that makes it feel like home. Vast in scale yet very inviting, the interior centres around an impressive open-plan living space designed for entertaining, relaxing and living a little differently. The kitchen is a showstopper - seriously stylish with designer finishes, a generous island bench with raised bar seating, and an out-the-gate integrated beverage station, equally suited to morning coffees or evening cocktails. From there, the space flows through defined dining and living zones, with a freestanding wood burner adding warmth and atmosphere. Downstairs, the bathroom and integrated laundry have been crafted by a tiler with an exceptional eye for detail and the skills to match - this is a space that could easily be considered a work of art in its own right. Upstairs, a second bathroom services two further double bedrooms. Set on a supersized 1,215m2 section in the relaxed rural township of Otane, you'll be part of a village well known for its laid-back lifestyle and thriving arts and sporting community, while still being within an easy commute of both Waipukurau and Hastings. A seriously cool home. A creative studio. A work-from-home setup. Somewhere to live your best life. Whatever you see, this is an inspiring and versatile space with the potential to be so much more. Go on. Appease your curiosity. Come and check out what lies behind!
