Beyond the leafy entrance of this prestigious Wairarapa enclave lies a truly remarkable estate — a grand 1860s homestead filled with light and sun, gracefully marrying historic character with refined contemporary living. Poised on approximately 2.8 hectares of manicured grounds, this distinguished residence offers an unrivalled lifestyle of privacy, scale and timeless countryside elegance.
With an expansive 470sqm (approximately) floor plan, this stately home welcomes families, entertainers and heritage lovers alike. Rich native timbers, high ceilings and classic detailing pay homage to its storied past, while thoughtful modern enhancements ensure absolute comfort and convenience throughout.
A series of beautifully appointed living spaces provide versatility and grandeur. Host with ease in the elegant formal lounge, relax fireside in the family living room or enjoy spirited evenings in the Pool room. Formal and casual dining seamlessly transition outdoors to generous wrap-around verandas — the perfect stage for summer celebrations overlooking the extensive views of the Tararua's and surrounding farmland.
At the heart of the home, the country-style gourmet kitchen stands as a true entertainer’s domain. Featuring stone and timber benchtops, a central island, walk-in pantry and premium 5-burner gas hobs, it effortlessly caters to intimate family dining and large-scale social soirées alike.
Six spacious bedrooms, a powder room and three luxurious bathrooms —including a Jack-and-Jill ensuite with spa bath — ensure ample accommodation for family, guests or an au-pair. A dedicated home office with wired connectivity supports modern work-from-home demands, while additional comforts include partial double glazing, heat pumps, solar hot water and central vacuum.
Outdoors, the estate continues to enchant. Set directly beyond the kitchen and dining, the pool provides a stunning extension of the home’s living and entertaining. Towering specimen trees, terraced garden beds and sweeping lawns set a botanical scene. Productive vegetable gardens and a flourishing orchard provide a taste of country self-sufficiency, while double garaging and additional modern shedding cater to vehicles, workshop space and hobbies with ease.
This extraordinary property is more than a home — it is a lifestyle legacy offering space, sophistication and serenity in equal measure. Rarely do opportunities of this calibre present themselves.
