Elevated Living Between River & Reserve

Perched between the blue ribbon of the Manawatū River and the rolling green of the Summerhill Reserve, this 290m², two-storey residence on an 1181m² section offers a way of living that feels both grounded and expansive. With five bedrooms and a clear separation between rest and recreation, it suits families wanting room to spread out, professionals who entertain, and couples planning for the years ahead.Downstairs is dedicated to accommodation: a thoughtful arrangement where nearly every bedroom opens directly outdoors. Morning coffee on the patio, fresh air drifting through wide glazing, easy independence for teens or guests- it’s all built in. A tiled family bathroom supports the level with ease, while the generous internal-access garage incorporates space for the laundry, keeping the practicalities neatly contained.Upstairs, life unfolds with ease. The living room centres around a gas-ignited fireplace, creating a warm focal point for winter evenings, before sliding doors draw you onto a shared balcony overlooking treetops. The master suite occupies its own quiet corner with a walk-in wardrobe, ensuite and direct balcony access. The kitchen, dining and second living zone form a broad social hub. There’s room for a full dining table, relaxed sofa seating and casual conversation around the island. From here, doors open to another balcony that captures canopy views across the reserve.Entertaining feels effortless; the setting does half the work for you. Below, the fenced backyard slopes gently into established greenery, creating a layered garden retreat framed by mature trees.Living in Fitzherbert means weekends on river trails, reserve walks at your back gate, and Massey University and the city centre within easy reach. Homes that offer this scale, outlook and privacy in one address are tightly held. Connect with Marisha Hess to experience how this one fits your future. RV $1.025.000. By Neg.
