315 Rangitatau West Road, Maxwell, Whanganui, Manawatu / Whanganui

Set on approximately 0.5363ha, this iconic country residence known locally as Penhill House, delivers views, space and seclusion, wrapped in timeless character. Rich dark timber features, decorative high ceilings, wide hallways and beautifully scaled rooms create a sense of craftsmanship throughout, complemented by modern-day comfort.

Inside, the home offers multiple living spaces to adapt easily to family life. The main lounge is generous and inviting with brand new carpet, a fireplace and large windows capturing rural outlooks. A second living room provides the perfect family zone, media retreat or games room, continuing the home’s classic detailing and warm, relaxed atmosphere.

The kitchen is both practical and welcoming, with crisp cabinetry, quality appliances and a breakfast bar for everyday connection. It flows seamlessly to the dining and living spaces or out to two separate decks, ideal for alfresco meals, entertaining friends or unwinding as the sun goes down.

Each bedroom is generously sized, with two enjoying their own ensuites — including a main ensuite with a striking timber vanity. In total, the home offers 4–5 bedrooms (or office), two living areas and three bathrooms, spread across an impressive 242m² (approx.) floor plan.

Outside, multiple outdoor living zones await, from sun-drenched decking to sheltered seating and expansive lawns — perfect for children, pets, trampolines and relaxed country living, without the upkeep of a larger block.

Practical needs are well catered for with a substantial 63m² three-car garage and ample off-street parking for guests, boats or trailers. For those seeking flexibility, a tiny home currently operating as a book-a-bach is up for negotiation but not included in the advertised price.

Located in Maxwell/Pakaraka, this property offers the best of both worlds — peaceful rural living with Whanganui’s schools, services and city amenities less than 20 minutes away, and the coast close enough to shape weekends.
