Hidden down a driveway is this sanctuary just waiting for you and your family to enjoy. Quiet and peaceful on the rear site, and screened with trees for extra privacy.

The original house, we are not quite sure how old it actually is, has been restored with modern conveniences while keeping original features. We believe first constructed in the 19th Century from the rimu which originally grew on the property.

The lounge and dining room have stripped floors with the original wide rimu floorboards.

The log burner in the lounge and the log effect electric fire in the connected dining room keep the home cosy in Winter, with decorative glazed doors to keep in the heat. The french windows at both ends give that essential indoor/outdoor flow, with access to the decks and gardens and a good flow of air in the Summer.

The large farmhouse kitchen had been refitted with rimu floorboards and has a good range of modern fitted cupboards and a generous corner pantry. It also has french windows giving direct access to the front deck.

The house is on 2 floors. There is a main bedroom and ensuite family bathroom on the ground floor, with three further bedrooms and a second bathroom upstairs. A large hallway leads to an office/workroom and a laundry, with internal access to three garages, which have light and power.

A second storey above the garages is currently used for storage, but has the potential for further development. A games room, space for the kids, maybe an office - plenty of space for you to utilise.

The house has town water and sewerage, as well as a number of rainwater tanks for irrigation.

Outside, the front deck has plenty of room for entertaining, and a large driveway allows you to turn a car without reversing, or for parking a caravan, a boat and several vehicles. There is solar panel electricity generation which will reduce your power bills.

The house comes with approximately 6 and a half acres of land, divided into about 5 acres of young olive trees, and over an acre of lifestyle paddocks and gardens, with a barn and a race to manage livestock. Property of this size within the town boundary seldom comes to the market.

The package comes complete with the tractor, and the ride on lawnmower, so you and your family can settle into the country lifestyle straight away. Schools, supermarket, shops, cafes, medical services and all the Carterton amenities are close by, and Masterton is about 20 minutes by car. There is a commuter train service to Wellington, through the Hutt Valley, and the driveway gives access to State Highway 2.
