Perched high above its 2,360sqm (approx) slice of leafy-green goodness, this light-filled character home has serious "cancel your plans" energy. Set in a quiet Durie Hill cul-de-sac, it offers peace, privacy, and the kind of views that make scrolling on your phone feel unnecessary (almost).
From the open-plan living, dining and kitchen, you'll enjoy treetop and ocean views that quietly remind you you're doing life right. Throw open the doors to the large, private deck and suddenly you're the host everyone wants an invite from - or equally, the person who mysteriously never leaves the house because it's just too good.
Two sets of double doors flood the living area with natural light, while the refreshed kitchen proves that character homes can have nice things. There's a bold black subway tile splashback, modern white cabinetry, timber benchtops, polished floors, and a full lineup of modern appliances (rangehood, oven, cooktop, dishwasher and fridge) that are happy to stay. Cooking here might actually become enjoyable - no promises, but the odds are good.
When winter rolls in, this home has you covered with an HRV system and a cosy wood burner that basically says, "Put your slippers on and relax."
Down the hallway are three good sized bedrooms, all with plush carpet and wardrobes. The master bedroom is the star of the show, with oversized windows framing peaceful bush views - it's giving retreat vibes without the retreat price tag. The bathroom features a large wet-floor shower and classic pedestal vanity, plus a separate toilet (because sharing is overrated) and a full-sized laundry with a new tub.
Set on a seriously impressive landholding, your bush views are well protected, meaning no surprise neighbours popping up in your outlook. And despite feeling wonderfully tucked away, you're still close to the Whanganui city centre, local shops, and zoned for and within walking distance to Durie Hill Primary School - best of both worlds, really.
Recently refreshed and refreshingly low-maintenance, this charming weatherboard home will appeal to everyone from professionals and families to downsizers and investors who appreciate a good view, a quiet street, and a home with personality.
