Property details

Listing # ARZ16114 | Listed on 31 January

Set on a generous section, this well-laid-out three-bedroom home delivers comfort, flexibility and excellent outdoor living. An ideal match for first-home buyers, downsizers or those seeking space without the upkeep of a larger property.

A covered front porch leads into a central foyer and wide hallway. From here, the main living and dining zone into a generous open-plan setting, designed for both daily living and relaxed entertaining. Large sliders connect directly to the patio, drawing natural light into the living area and strengthening the indoor-outdoor connection. The contrast of soft carpet in the lounge and timber look floors through the kitchen and dining adds warmth and definition to each zone.

The family room is positioned alongside the main living area and visually defined by a striking forest-themed feature wall. This space works equally well as a second lounge, media room, hobby area or retreat, and enjoys its own outdoor access.

The kitchen is practical and well-appointed, featuring white cabinetry, dark stone benchtops, a breakfast bar, glass splashback and good storage. Windows along the bench line bring in sunshine while maintaining privacy, making this a pleasant space to cook and connect.

Accommodation includes three well-proportioned bedrooms, with the master offering built-in storage and direct access to the backyard. A tidy family bathroom services the home, supported by a separate laundry with shower and second toilet, external access.

Outside, a covered patio provides a sheltered spot for year-round entertaining. The fully fenced backyard includes established lawn, raised garden beds, a garden shed and plenty of space for kids, pets or future projects. Ample off-street parking, a long paved driveway, carport and garage mean there’s room for the boat, trailer or even the bus.

The home is just a short walk to Rakaia’s town centre and moments from the Rakaia River, with Methven and Rolleston within easy reach.
