Description
Majestic Greenhaugh Gardens – A Timeless Estate on 20 Acres
Welcome to Greenhaugh Gardens - a cherished and historic lifestyle property that radiates charm, elegance, and opportunity. Located just 10 minutes from Palmerston North, this exceptional 20-acre estate offers a rare blend of heritage, comfort, and business potential. Crafted from native New Zealand heart totara trees milled right on the property, the residence is a stunning showcase of country style and timeless craftsmanship. From soaring ceilings to exquisite detailing, the four bedroom home offers both formal and informal living spaces full of warmth and character. The farm-style kitchen and dining area are sun-filled highlights, while the expansive wraparound veranda and covered outdoor entertaining pergola invite year-round enjoyment. The established grounds are an enchanting garden paradise to explore and admire. A newly built, standalone summerhouse, designed to seat up to 50 guests, is perfect for luncheons, garden tours, or private functions - adding a genuine commercial dimension to the property, should you choose.
Steeped in history, the estate was once home to the original Cobb & Co stables, further enriching Greenhaugh Gardens’ unique story. Highly regarded and designated as a Garden of International Significance by the New Zealand Gardens Trust, the grounds have featured in numerous publications, including NZ House & Garden and Life & Leisure. Renowned for its extensive collection of unique and hard-to-find perennials and bulbs, this property is truly one of a kind.
Whether a family retreat or an inspiring business venture, Greenhaugh Gardens offers a lifestyle like no other.
