Nestled in the foothills of the Tararua Ranges, this distinctive property offers privacy, character and room to breathe across approximately 3.47 hectares.
Filled with character and warmth, the macrocarpa board and batten home offers four bedrooms, two bathrooms and a choice of inviting living spaces. The modern farm style kitchen connects easily with the dining area, where a built-in bench seat captures the morning sun. Doors open onto the wrap around deck, providing a lovely connection with the established grounds.
A step-down formal lounge creates a warm and welcoming second living space, complete with an open fire and French doors to the deck. A separate library provides a quiet place to read or work, while a wood burner with wetback, radiator heating and underfloor heating provide comfort throughout the cooler months.
The land offers a balance of flat and hill country, divided into four paddocks with water troughs. Streams, two ponds, established fruit trees, gardens and mānuka bush create a peaceful setting filled with native birdlife. Concrete floored sheds, woodsheds and a covered two bay carport provide excellent storage.
Adding something truly special is The Treehouse, a charming macrocarpa cabin that has operated as a successful, highly rated Airbnb for six years. This off grid retreat includes solar power, a fireplace, composting toilet, outdoor bath, terraced lawns and its own picnic area.
Only 15 minutes from Masterton and Carterton, the property is close to Mount Holdsworth walking tracks, the mountain bike park, river swimming spots and popular local attractions.
A peaceful sanctuary, and full of personality, 43 Blakes Road offers a lifestyle unlike any other.
