231 Chester Road, Carterton, Wellington

Set on 6.04ha (more or less) of prime lifestyle land, 231 Chester Road offers a truly special opportunity, two beautifully restored character dwellings surrounded by stunning established gardens and picturesque rural views. You can feel the history and care that’s gone into creating this exceptional property.

The main home welcomes you with an open-plan entrance, dining, and modern farm-style kitchen where you can take in the gorgeous garden views. A heat pump provides comfort, while the adjoining living area, warmed by a freestanding fireplace, offers the perfect place to unwind. Upstairs you’ll find a versatile landing area, ideal as an office or quiet nook, along with three well-appointed bedrooms, each enjoying lovely outlooks over the surrounding land and gardens.

The second dwelling, a charming three-bedroom cottage, has been beautifully restored with an open-plan kitchen, dining, and living area, complemented by two heat pumps for year-round comfort. Upstairs, a flexible gallery room offers extra space for a third bedroom, office, studio, or storage. With its own entrance and parking, this cottage is ideal for multi-generational living, guests, or a home-and-income opportunity, and is currently tenanted at $520 per week.

The land itself is exceptional, beautifully landscaped with garden paths, ponds, and mature trees that create a true sense of peace and privacy. A versatile garage provides the perfect space for storage, a home gym, or even a spa room. There are also numerous outbuildings, including calf sheds (and stables), a loading race, a milking area, and fully deer-fenced paddocks ready for your choice of stock. There’s plenty of water, with a bore onsite and a water race running through the property.

Ideally located just outside Carterton, with the golf course down the road and Masterton only a short drive away, this stunning property perfectly combines the charm of history with the comfort and convenience of modern rural living.
