Presenting a stunning family lifestyle property where classic bungalow character meets thoughtful modern updates. From the grand entranceway to the ornate ceilings and beautiful living spaces, this home offers warmth, charm, and versatility. The French country-style kitchen features generous storage, a large oven with gas cooktop, and a breakfast bar flowing into the casual dining area with a wood burner and French doors opening to the patio and established gardens. A separate family room with picture windows, heat pump, and chandelier lighting provides another inviting space to relax, while the formal dining and living room with a gas fireplace is perfect for entertaining. Currently configured as two bedrooms, the layout offers flexibility to create a third bedroom if needed. Set on 1.52 acres (more or less), the grounds include mature trees, gardens, lawn space, a vege garden, and a paddock ideal for a few animals. Located just minutes from Kairanga and Newbury School, and an easy drive to Palmerston North and Feilding, this is a special lifestyle opportunity in the heart of the Manawatu.
