On the edge of Kurow, where country life still moves at a gentler pace, this beautiful freshly painted villa feels like the kind of home people wait a lifetime to find.
From the moment you arrive, the original villa character sets the tone — a welcoming front porch, classic exterior detailing and timeless proportions that instantly remind you why homes like this are so tightly held. Step inside and the story continues with two living areas, large open plan kitchen/dining, a back porch and a sense that makes everyday living feel easy.
There are four true bedrooms, offering flexibility for family, guests or hobby room, and two toilets — a practical touch with one accessible from the outside. The home has been upgraded with a new laundry and bathroom, bringing modern convenience into a classic layout, while insulation, heat pumps and a wood burner ensures year-round comfort in every season.
Outside is where this property truly shines for those who love both space and function. The sheds are outstanding — ideal for tools, projects, storage and all the extras that come with country living. Above the main shed sits a brilliant upstairs sleepout, perfect for visiting grandchildren, overflow guests, a studio or a private artist retreat away from the main house.
Established gardens and trees wrap the home in colour and shelter, creating quiet pockets to enjoy a morning coffee on the porch, watch the seasons change, or simply take in the peace that comes with living in a genuine rural town.
One of the features of this location is how connected it feels. From your property, you can walk into town or follow the local trail toward the river. The Waitaki River becomes part of everyday life — whether it’s an evening stroll, fishing, swimming or easy access to the wider network of tracks linked with the Alps to Ocean Cycle Trail.
This is a home for people who value character, space and practicality — a place where classic villa charm meets real country functionality. This Kurow villa offers something increasingly rare…
