What's around 388 Alabama Road

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.

Lorraine was friendly, honest, and made buying my home so easy. Highly recommend!

Lorraine was amazing to work with! From the very beginning, she was so genuine, kind, and easygoing — I felt completely comfortable with her. She was always available when I needed anything, and her guidance was always helpful and greatly appreciated. Nothing ever felt like too much trouble for Lorraine, and she really made the whole process of buying my home feel smooth and stress-free. I am so grateful for her help — I can’t recommend Lorraine enough!
