Description
Nestled near the picturesque village of Upokongaro, “Lanark Croft” offers a rural lifestyle and family-friendly living. Set on 2.8 hectares (more or less), this inviting property provides a peaceful country escape just a short drive or cycle from Whanganui City.
At the heart of the property is a warm and welcoming 168sqm (more or less) family home, featuring three spacious bedrooms, a sun-filled kitchen, and a second lounge ideal for family living. A separate office or games room offers the perfect space for remote work, hobbies, or teenagers. Comfort is assured year-round with two heat pumps, a Lady Kitchener log burner, and a wetback hot water system for added efficiency.
Outdoors, the property is well-equipped for country living with a great selection of sheds and outbuildings — including a 9x6m (approximate) redbarn, garage, carport, woolshed, workshop, and utility room. Two tidal streams gracefully wrap around three sides of the property, creating a private, park-like setting that’s perfect for relaxing, swimming, or kayaking.
Over 75 productive feijoa trees provide a bonus income opportunity or fun family venture. Located close to the local primary school, café, and the Upokongaro cycle bridge, “Lanark Croft” delivers an idyllic rural lifestyle with city convenience right at your doorstep.
