The Home Every Family Dreams Of

Some homes come to the market and some make history. 193 Great North Road is one of them. A grand villa in one of Whanganui's most sought-after locations, this home has been held and cherished by the same owners for an incredible 29 years. Set on an impressive 2,550 m2 (approx) parcel of land, it offers a level of space and presence seldom found in such a prestigious location. The extension was designed by renowned architect Mark Southcombe, the home's architecture is a masterclass in elegance, craftsmanship and enduring design. Every detail reflects a level of thought and quality that has stood the test of time. 

Behind the gates awaits four generous bedrooms, two bathrooms and an exceptional collection of living spaces designed for family living and entertaining. The home features a substantial main living room complemented by a formal dining area, while an extra-large living/rumpus room provides the flexibility for a media room, games room or teenagers' retreat. A dedicated office offers a quiet space for working from home and the oversized kitchen and dining area forms the heart of the home with abundant room for everyday living and gatherings. Enjoy picturesque sea views from multiple vantage points throughout the property, including the deck, kitchen, and upstairs bedroom - creating a stunning backdrop to everyday living.

Practicality is equally well catered for with double internal-access garaging and two additional storage rooms, providing ample space for hobbies, equipment and household storage. From sunny living areas to a beautiful deck perfect for entertaining, complete with a stunning outdoor fireplace that creates the ultimate setting for year-round gatherings, every space has been thoughtfully enjoyed. Whether you're hosting summer barbecues with family and friends or relaxing beside the fire on a crisp winter evening, this exceptional outdoor entertaining area is designed to be enjoyed in every season. Surrounded by mature grounds and well landscaped gardens that follow the seasons as they prepare for the Spring bloom, this private sanctuary feels worlds away yet remains close to everything you need. 

This isn't just a home - it's a landmark residence with a story to tell, a place where memories have been made and where many more are waiting to be created.
