Storage, workspace, and room to spare. A higher-than-standard double garage with integrated workshop, double carport, garden shed, and firewood garage — a place for everything. This property means business and it just happens to have a great home on it too.
Inside, five bedrooms give everyone their own space. The two bathrooms, one of which is an ensuite added a few years ago, have been updated and refurbished, along with the kitchen, so the main living areas are sorted. High ceilings give the whole place a generous feel. A pellet burner and wood burner keep things warm through winter, and gas hot water keeps things efficient year round. While not new, the home has been brought up to today's standards, with piling, plumbing, and wiring all compliant. There is also a loft bunk room with its own separate entrance, perfect as a teen retreat, studio, or extra workspace.
Outside, 8,170m² of land gives you room to breathe. Six well-watered paddocks, fruit trees, a veggie garden, a chook pen, and an aviary — everything you need to live a little more off the land. Marton town is close for schools and shops, but come home and it is quiet.
Marton's central location adds even more to the appeal, with Wanganui just 30 minutes away, Wellington around 2 hours, Palmerston North just 35 minutes down the road, New Plymouth around 2.5 hours, and Taupo and Napier both approximately 2 hours 45 minutes — making this an easy base for work, weekends away, or commuting across the lower North Island. Marton is also emerging as a green power hub for New Zealand, with several major solar farms either underway or in planning, promising extra employment opportunities for the area in the years ahead.
Space to work, room to live, a place to call your own. Come and see for yourself.
