128 Harrison Street, Whanganui Central, Whanganui, Manawatu / Whanganui

Waiting for a home with real character, a proper backyard and a central address that keeps life easy? This is it! Set on a 508m² section in Whanganui Central, this two-bedroom home gives you 100m² of living with the kind of details that are getting harder to find, from the long central hallway and high ceilings to the fireplaces, timber finishes and the sense of arrival from the front porch.

The living areas are generous, grounded and easy to settle into. A large lounge connects through to the kitchen and dining zone, so you can spread out without losing connection, while French doors open the back of the home to a covered deck for morning coffee, weekend lunches or an easy step outside any time of the end of the day. The kitchen has wraparound bench space, strong storage, timber cabinetry and wide windows looking out to the garden, and there is a separate laundry tucked alongside for everyday practicality.

The bedrooms are well-sized and full of personality. Both have good natural light, soft neutral finishes, and character details like the original fireplaces, built-in cabinetry and detailed trim that give each room its own identity. The bathroom has been smartly designed with a freestanding bath, separate shower, vanity and WC all in one well-finished room. A heat pump, built-in storage and new carpet add to the home’s comfort and usability.

Outdoors, the rear section is long, level and fully usable, with established planting around the edges, a paved area for entertaining, covered decking at the house and plenty of lawn left for pets, play, gardening or simply enjoying a bit more breathing room.

From here, you are well placed for daily life, with Whanganui’s city centre, Victoria Avenue shops, and cafés are all close by.

If you can see yourself here, give Penny Little a call and come take a proper look.
