Tucked away in a quiet cul-de-sac, this 170m² home on a generous 1012m² section delivers more than you’d expect, with a bonus sleep-out, garden charm and flexible spaces that make it stand apart.

Behind the classic white fence, framed by cherry blossoms, the home greets you with warmth. The living room instantly impresses with exposed timber beams, a wood burner set against earthy tones and a sense of comfort that makes it the heart of family life. From here, the flow is effortless into the kitchen and dining zone, where modern touches like open shelving, tiled floors and crisp cabinetry create a space full of personality. Sliding doors draw you out to the deck, perfect for summer dining or simply soaking in the garden views.

The main home offers three bedrooms, each generous and light-filled, supported by a tidy family bathroom with timber flooring. A separate study adds welcome flexibility as a quiet spot for working from home, creative projects or retreat. Everyday needs are met with a dedicated laundry.

The real bonus comes in the sleepout: a self-contained space with its own bedroom, bathroom, living area and deck. Whether it’s a haven for guests, room for extended family, or potential rental income, this addition turns the property into a smart, future-proofed buy. A garage and workshop sit alongside, giving plenty of room for storage, tinkering or a gym. Meanwhile, the backyard delivers the lifestyle families dream of: a flat, secure lawn for kids and pets, raised planters for gardeners, flowering shrubs for colour and plenty of room for BBQs and gatherings.

Set in Whanganui East, the home puts you minutes from schools, sports fields, parks, and the local pool - making it an easy choice for active families. The riverside walkway, neighbourhood shops, and cafes are also close at hand, while the city centre is only a short drive away.
