Tucked away just 20 minutes from Whanganui, this delightful property is proof of what vision and hard work can create. What was once a simple shearers quarters has been lovingly transformed into a warm and inviting open-plan cottage, with one bedroom and one bathroom, where every corner has been designed for easy, relaxed living.

Step inside and you’ll find a light, open living space that flows naturally from kitchen to lounge. The heart of the home is the wood range oven and cooktop, a real country feature that keeps the cottage toasty through winter and turns everyday cooking into something special. Picture slow-roasted dinners, fresh bread and a kettle always on the go. When it’s time to unwind, the freestanding bath invites you to sink in and let the world slip away.

Outside, the 5,800 m2 (approx 1.4 acres) of land offers privacy, space and the freedom to live off the land. The established vegetable garden is ready for you to grow your own, while the paddock is perfect for a few sheep, a pony or some chooks. A single garage keeps the car under cover, and the garden shed and workshop provide plenty of room for tools, hobbies and weekend projects.

This is a property that suits many lifestyles. It makes a perfect weekend getaway for those wanting to escape the city or an ideal home for anyone looking to downsize without giving up space and freedom. It also offers a great business opportunity as a weekend holiday rental, with its charm, character and peaceful setting sure to appeal to guests looking for a true country escape and only 15 minutes to Ototoko Beach. Private, practical and full of heart, this little gem is ready for its next chapter. Opportunities like this don’t come along often, so call today to arrange your viewing.
