NOW VACANT, RENOVATED & READY TO SELL!
Beautifully presented, this freshly renovated three-bedroom home offers a unique opportunity to get into rural lifestyle living affordably.
Only 3 minutes (1.9km) to motorway access and minutes from Pokeno Township puts this property in a sought after location.
The hard work has been done inside, with a comprehensive renovation includes a stylish new kitchen with engineered stone benchtops, quality appliances, new flooring, heat pump, fresh décor and updated fixtures throughout. It's modern, comfortable and ready for its next owners to move straight in.
The open-plan living flows out onto a timber deck capturing afternoon sun and elevated rural views. Three bedrooms and a modern family bathroom complete this practical, easy-living home.
Outside, the approximately 3,489m² section offers plenty of space and potential. Further gorse clearing, fencing and landscaping would enhance the property. For buyers happy to roll up their sleeves, there's a real opportunity to add value over time and maximize this lifestyle block.
Enjoy the space and outlook of rural living without sacrificing convenience. Our vendor has completed all of the hard work relocating four homes, two have already sold to lovely homeowners. Don't miss out.

How we worked this out
| Council valuation, Oct 2023 | $680,000 |
|---|---|
| Market movement in Waikato District since the council valuation | +1.8% |
| How Pōkeno sells against council values | −2.0% |
| Homes of this age in Pōkeno | −0.2% |
| Homes in this price range | −0.4% |
| Land as a share of the value | +0.2% |
| Nearby recent sales (15) | +0.8% |
| Our estimate | $682,000 |
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.

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.
