89C Heads Road, Gonville, Whanganui, Manawatu / Whanganui

A home doesn’t need excess to feel generous. This one proves it with a layout that’s purposeful, tidy and remarkably practical for its 100m² footprint. Set back from the road, it offers a sense of separation from the bustle of Heads Road while keeping daily essentials within easy reach. Gonville School, the medical centre, local cafés and the supermarket are all close enough to make life comfortable.

Inside, the living room takes the prime northerly aspect, drawing in light through wide sliders that open to the private courtyard. It’s a bright, easy space to arrange and enjoy, with enough floor area to create distinct zones for relaxing and hosting. Beside it, the first of two bedrooms is quietly positioned, making it ideal for guests, a study or a second family room depending on how you live.

A central hallway connects everything, guiding you past a separate WC and the combined bathroom and laundry. Both are well proportioned and positioned for everyday convenience. Continue through to the kitchen and dining area, where original cabinetry offers surprising storage and a cool, retro charm that many will appreciate. The adjoining second bedroom sits beside this space, enjoying good natural light and a peaceful outlook to the fenced boundary.

Parking is sorted with additional off-street park out front. Outside, the courtyard stays low-maintenance with established trees along the rear boundary and room to personalise with pots, planters or raised beds.

It works beautifully as a first step onto the property ladder, or a downsizer for those wanting less upkeep or a smart investment in a high-demand pocket of Whanganui.
