Country Serenity, Town Convenience

Not often does an opportunity like this come along - and it certainly will not last long. Set on approximately 15 acres (6ha) of picturesque land, this 371m² (more or less) home perfectly balances timeless character with modern comfort. Rarely will you find such an exceptional lifestyle property within walking distance to town, yet with the peace and privacy of true rural New Zealand living.

A tree-lined driveway welcomes you to this beautifully renovated home, where no detail has been overlooked.

Step inside the formidable entrance and you will be enchanted by all that is on offer! The home features four spacious bedrooms and four bathrooms. The master suite is exceptionally generous, complete with a private deck that captures the sun - perfect for your morning coffee and even better a late afternoon aperitif. A formal dining room provides the perfect space for hosting elegant dinners, while the expansive living area can be divided into dedicated zones.

The thoughtful design offers flexibility for multi-generational living, guest accommodation, or income opportunities such as Airbnb or a long-term boarder as the fourth bedroom is set up as a self-contained apartment complete with kitchenette.

The home is kept warm and comfortable throughout the seasons with a wood burner, heat pumps and radiators fuelled by the wetback from the wood burner. There is also a separate laundry and mudroom that conveniently has access to one of the bathrooms - ideal when working outside.

Outdoor living is just as impressive - the north-facing position takes full advantage of the sun and stunning mountain views. A wide deck runs nearly the entire length of the house, offering a perfect place to relax or entertain. The beautifully landscaped gardens, tranquil pond, and fully fenced grounds create a private and peaceful haven for families and pets alike. Practical features include a large three-bay shed, an internal-access double garage, a gardening shed, and the convenience of town water. There is a wash down bay, yards, plenty of parking including room for the boat and campervan. Access is also available via Johnston Road, adding to the property's ease and accessibility.

Whether you are looking to create lifelong memories, enjoy an idyllic lifestyle, or explore income-generating options, this property offers it all. Here you can live the country dream - without giving up the ease and convenience of town living.

Located right next to Huntley school, it is only a few minutes from Nga Tawa and also walking distance to the local schools, supermarkets, and cafes. With easy access to both State Highway 1 and 3, Whanganui, Palmerston North and Ohakea are all approximately within 30 minutes' drive.
