This Marybank retreat is very close to town and is quietly folded into more than two hectares of established greenery. The main home features 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, with a separate sleepout giving it a rare versatility: equally at ease hosting families, accommodating multi-generational living, or offering sanctuary to those who prize privacy without sacrificing possibility.

The living room, framed by a bay window and opening onto a broad deck offers great indoor/outdoor flow, and is where mornings stretch into slow coffee rituals and evenings gather around the glow of conversation. The dining room feels ready for both week-night meals and celebratory feasts. The country kitchen keeps things practical and homely, anchored by a wood burner with wetback.

All bedrooms have easy access to both bathrooms or easily adapt for kids or guests. Downstairs, the original basement garage is already functioning as a workspace and gym, however could pivot back to garaging if you prefer. Beyond the main home, the sleepout with its own bedroom, bathroom and kitchenette is a real asset, perfect for extended family and visiting friends.

Outside, the property flexes into true lifestyle territory. Over two hectares of flat and sloping land gives you room to graze a few animals or simply enjoy the grounds with mature trees and beautiful vista and sea views. The owners have planted many native trees and a small orchard for your future enjoyment.

The farm shed/workshop with 3-phase power provides the perfect implement space and there’s a caravan shed for the motorhome, plus a separate single garage adjacent to the house.

Here you’re a short drive from Whanganui’s heart, surrounded by tree-lined privacy and views that provide space and connection. Daily essentials, schools, and city life are all close at hand, but at home you’ll feel worlds away, wrapped in the kind of tranquillity people spend years searching for.

Opportunities like this are rare. To see it for yourself, contact Rochelle Burton 027 295 8407.
