If you're looking for a Country Lifestyle without the hard work, this could be just the home you've been imagining. Welcome to Glen Massey - once a bustling coal mining village, now a peaceful backwater just 25 minutes from The Base.
At 927 Waingaro Road you'll find a two storey home unlike any other. Built in the roaring 1920s as the community hall for the Wilton Colliery miners and their families, this red-roofed charmer carries a rich local history. Included with the house is a high-roof workshop which once housed the village panel-beating and engineering works, while the back shed served as the local butchery. Think what you could do with all this work space!
Today, the property has been thoughtfully reimagined as a comfortable modern home and has been tastefully decorated throughout. Inside you'll find three huge bedrooms - (two of them upstairs and tucked under the roof), an office and generous open-plan living - all complemented by extensive outdoor decking and a covered entertainment hub.
Under the carpet and vinyl lies the original, time-worn 100 year old wooden dance floor, just waiting to be uncovered and brought back to its former glory so there is opportunity for the new owner to add yet more value.
The nicely planted section including mature trees and ornamentals, offers the perfect balance: plenty of room for a trampoline, caravan, cars and boat, yet compact enough to be easily maintained. Imagine collecting fresh eggs from your own hens, planting a thriving veggie garden, or even keeping a chubby Shetland pony to graze the front lawn.
Or maybe a ride-on is the story?
This is easy country living at its best - manageable, tranquil, and full of character. And with the highly regarded Glen Massey Primary School (Years 1-8) within walking distance, it's an ideal family haven.
Come and see for yourself this weekend either Saturday at 1pm or Sunday at 11am.
Deadline Sale 21st October 3:00pm
