For 50 years, Poukawa Homestead stood tall on its stately Hawke's Bay property. Built in 1902, the two-storey house with wraparound verandahs was headquarters for a station with 20,000 sheep and had nine bedrooms and servants' quarters. But in 1952, the owners inexplicably lopped off the top storey.
