This immaculate family home in Durie Hill feels settled, polished and ready to enjoy from the moment you arrive. Set on a substantial 2027m² site of low maintenance terraced gardens and a sunny 100m² floor area home, it offers that increasingly rare mix of presentation, practicality and ease.

Step inside this stunning double glazed and fully insulated home to spacious open plan living. The kitchen and dining sit neatly to one side, where crisp white cabinetry is paired with bold red benchtops that give the space character, along with good wraparound bench space. Wide windows over the sink bring in natural light. The living room forms a comfortable central hub, flowing straight out to the spectacular covered deck - a natural extension of your space that works just as well for peaceful mornings as it does for evenings with friends.

All three bedrooms are well-sized, bright and sunny, offering comfortable, restful accommodation without fuss. The bathroom is fresh and tidy, the separate toilet is a welcome practical extra, and the laundry nook keeps household routines neatly tucked away. It’s a home that has clearly been much loved and looked after, and that comes through in every room.

Outside, the grounds are beautifully presented and easy to enjoy. There’s a wide sweep of lawn for kids to run, established planting and terraced gardens that soften the setting, and a strong sense of order across the whole property. The garaging really does shine, with a large double standalone garage, an additional separate single garage, and plenty of concrete parking for extra vehicles, caravan, or boat.

Durie Hill remains one of Whanganui’s most loved spots for good reason, with its elevated position, established feel and easy access into the city. From here you’re well placed for excellent local schools, the river and everyday amenities, and always coming home to something that feels calm and complete.

The Bournes would love to show you through.
