Set high on one of Fairhall's most coveted roads, 42 Booker Road commands a panoramic outlook across Marlborough in every direction. The current owners took on this site as untouched land and, over more than two decades, built the residence and shaped the grounds into what they are today.
Every hedge line, garden bed and established tree reflects that long, unhurried care. Properties of this calibre, held by one family since their creation, rarely come to market.
The 276sqm (more or less) home spans two levels. Upstairs, the master suite enjoys its own ensuite and a private balcony overlooking the gardens and the valley beyond, with a studio at the head of the stairs ideal as an artist's space or second lounge. On the ground floor are three double bedrooms and a family bathroom, two of the bedrooms opening onto the patio. Living centres on an open-plan room warmed by a log fire, where French doors lead to a covered north-facing terrace. A formal dining room or lounge sits off the
kitchen, and a study adjoins the main living area.
Outside, a broad manicured lawn is framed by mature plantings, with a sheltered courtyard and outdoor fireplace for evenings outdoors. A productive orchard and an established vegetable garden complete the grounds.
The 9.54ha (more or less) of rolling hill country suits grazing, with four SVIS shares included. Infrastructure includes an internal-access double garage, an 9m x 8m workshop and a two-bay implement shed for machinery, a boat or a caravan.
