There's something about arriving at 33 Churchill Road that immediately sets it apart.
A grand, tree lined driveway leads you through established grounds towards a character weatherboard home framed by beautiful gardens and towering palms. Beyond the residence, approximately 9.7 hectares of countryside stretch towards the Glen Murray wetlands, where the outlook changes with the seasons and there's barely another home in sight.
It's a property with a real sense of place. Mature cabbage trees, native flax, established trees and traditional post and rail fencing give it the kind of rural character that takes decades to create.
And while the setting might be what first catches your attention, there's considerably more here than a beautiful outlook.
Originally built in the 1950’s, relocated to its current position in the 1980's and partially modernised over time, the approximately 143m² residence retains its country charm while offering the comforts needed for everyday living.
A tiled entrance opens into a home with polished native timber flooring, generous living spaces and a practical layout that makes good use of its surroundings.
The kitchen has been updated with windows overlooking the grounds, while the adjoining dining and living areas provide comfortable spaces for family life.
Running almost the entire length of the home is a substantial covered pergola, accessed directly from the dining area, living room and master bedroom. It's a standout feature, creating an expansive outdoor space for entertaining, summer dinners or simply sitting back and taking in the gardens.
The master bedroom enjoys its own wing of the home, complete with a walk in wardrobe, ensuite and French doors opening outdoors. Three further bedrooms, a family bathroom complete the layout.
Now, Let's Talk About the Shedding.
For anyone needing serious space for vehicles, machinery or a business, this is where 33 Churchill Road really comes into its own.
The enormous high stud, two bay shed has room for four or more large vehicles, with three phase power adding another level of practicality. Whether you're storing machinery, working on vehicles or looking for a substantial workshop, the proportions here are hard to overlook.
Separate from the main shed is a large double garage with adjoining carport and additional loft storage. Currently configured for a home business, it offers a useful setup for anyone wanting a dedicated workspace away from the main residence.
A stable/loosebox and stock yards add to the property's versatility, particularly for those with horses or other livestock.
Land, Gardens & the Glen Murray Wetlands
The approximately 9.7-hectare holding offers a combination of productive grazing land and established grounds surrounding the home.
Split up into around 10 paddocks. More than half the land has been used for grazing, providing options for livestock or other small scale farming interests.
The gardens are another highlight. Large palms, mature trees and extensive planting create a beautifully established setting around the residence, while the wider property retains an unmistakably rural New Zealand feel.
And beyond it all are the wetlands.
With an outlook across the largely unpopulated Glen Murray landscape, the property enjoys a degree of openness and natural scenery that's becoming increasingly difficult to find.
