Homes positioned directly across from the Whanganui River have a certain feel to them — open, relaxed, and just that little bit removed from the rush of everyday life. From the porch and front two bedrooms, you can watch the river shift with the light, see people out along the stopbank, and enjoy that sense of space that’s hard to find elsewhere.

Set on a 648m² (+/-) section, this 147m² (+/-) double-glazed home offers three bedrooms and two bathrooms, creating a good mix of outlook and everyday comfort.

Inside, the layout is modern and functional, with open-plan living, dining and kitchen forming the central hub of the home. The kitchen offers good bench space and storage, while a combined scullery-laundry adds a practical touch that buyers will appreciate.

The kitchen connects easily to the living area, where a wood burner creates a warm focal point through the cooler months, with a heat pump ensuring comfort year-round. Large sliders open out to the covered deck, extending the living space outdoors.

The main bedroom is positioned away from the living area and includes its own ensuite and walk-in wardrobe — a nice retreat at the end of the day. Two additional bedrooms sit down the hallway, alongside a family bathroom with bath, shower and vanity.

Outdoors, the covered rear deck flows naturally off the living area and will likely become your go-to spot for entertaining, relaxed evenings or weekend BBQs. The backyard offers a sense of space without too much upkeep, complemented by a concrete driveway plus sheds that provide flexibility for hobbies, tools or additional storage.

Positioned in Aramoho, you’re directly across from the river and walkway — ideal for morning walks, bike rides or simply enjoying the outlook — while still being well connected to the wider Whanganui city centre.

If you’ve been looking for a modernised home that offers a bit more space, a bit more outlook, and a setting that genuinely feels good to come home to, this is one worth seeing.
