Overview

Huge section, beautiful home

Beautifully displayed on an expansive 1895 sqm section filled with towering trees, vibrant gardens, and rolling front lawn, this grand 1905 villa is a rare gem that's ready for new beginnings. The current owners have already made their next move, so this beauty must be sold - an exciting opportunity for one lucky buyer. The home's timeless elegance draws you in - the sweeping wrap-around verandah sets the scene - perfect for slow mornings with coffee or evening wine as the sun sets through the trees. French doors open wide, inviting you into a home steeped in Marlborough character and warmth. The stained glass front door is a showstopper, opening to a generous hallway wrapped in embossed leather panels. Soaring ceilings and detailed period features throughout speak to a level of craftsmanship that's becoming harder to find. The heart of the home is cosy and inviting, with a large fireplace in the lounge that warms the entire house and a second fireplace in the kitchen on wetback - ideal for cutting costs and keeping toasty in the winter months. Plush new carpet underfoot and stylish light fittings give the home a refined, yet homely feel. Practicality hasn't been forgotten either - a separate laundry, kitchen scullery, and a handy second toilet make everyday life that little bit easier. Outside, the freestanding garage (currently a workshop) offers loads of potential - whether you need extra storage, a creative space, or dream of building more sheds, there's space here to make it happen. Fully fenced with ample off-street parking and loads of room for kids to roam, this is a property that will suit families, garden lovers, and character home enthusiasts alike. Located near Riverlands School - a sweet country school with a strong community vibe - you'll enjoy all the perks of rural living, just minutes from town. If you've been dreaming of a character home that wraps you in warmth, charm, and possibility, this is the one. Come take a look. You may never want to leave.
