Description
Set on an impressive 1122sqm section in Whanganui East, this classic three-bedroom home delivers a lifestyle that’s increasingly hard to find, with generous land, leafy surroundings and a sense of space. This classic 1950's home was positioned to make the most of the sun and built to last.
A welcoming living room sits centrally, warmed by timber floors and large windows that frame garden views and bring in natural daylight. The adjoining dining area connects easily with the kitchen, where a practical layout, ample cabinetry and good bench space make everyday meals and hosting straightforward.
Three bedrooms are positioned off the hallway, each offering a comfortable retreat with garden outlooks. The bathroom is neatly presented with a shower-over-bath, vanity and toilet, while a separate laundry adds everyday convenience with direct access outside, ideal after time in the garden or backyard.
Outdoors is where this property truly shines. The expansive lawn, mature trees and established planting create a private, green backdrop for daily life. A picnic table beneath palms offers a relaxed spot for summer lunches, while the sheer scale of the section opens up options for gardeners, families, pets or future ideas. A standalone double garage has ben converted in to a large studio and storage space but could be easily returned to its original purpose. This is further complemented by additional off-street space along the driveway.
Positioned in Whanganui East, the location keeps daily life easy. You’re close to Whanganui East School, local parks, the Whanganui River walkway and nearby shops, with the city centre just a short drive away for cafés, supermarkets and amenities.
