Positioned at the end of a picturesque tree-lined entrance, this attractive villa offers a wonderful balance of character, comfort and country living. Showcasing charming features including high stud ceilings, an ornate hallway arch, timber flooring and beautiful picture windows overlooking established gardens, this is a home that has been lovingly created and thoughtfully enjoyed.
The country-style kitchen forms the heart of the home, complete with a Falcon oven, versatile central island, bi-fold windows and easy connection to the open-plan dining and living spaces. Living areas provide flexibility for families, including a welcoming lounge with wood burner, television room with open fire and seamless indoor-outdoor flow to a wraparound partially covered deck with pergolas, overlooking the beautifully planted pond, which also serves as a natural pool.
Accommodation includes three double bedrooms, plus a generous fourth bedroom, although perfect as a home office or third separate living space, featuring a wood burner, bay window and built-in shelving. A separate dressing room/walk-in wardrobe adds further practicality.
The beautifully renovated tiled bathroom includes a large shower, separate bath and a bidet, while the home is complemented by a second W.C. Year-round comfort is provided with three heat pumps, two wood burners, an open fire and heat transfer system.
Set on 1.4 hectares, the land is fenced for livestock and includes mature trees providing shelter and shade, a yards and horse shelter. The grounds have been professionally landscaped by Stablehouse Design and are a standout feature, with established native and specimen trees, manicured lawn, formal and informal gardens, and a private sunken outdoor entertaining area.
Adding further appeal and supplementary income is a beautifully renovated, fully self-contained one-bedroom cottage, rich in character and charm. Currently occupied by a long term tenant, it offers flexibility as an income stream, comfortable accommodation for extended family or guests, or an ideal option for short-term rental accommodation such as a B&B.
With an R.V. of $1,150,000, complete with original sheds, and a large purpose-built workshop and separate double garage, this special property enjoys a popular country location with views to the Eastern Ranges, a friendly neighbourhood atmosphere, zoned school bus access and convenient proximity to Masterton CBD and hospital.
