51 Wakefield Street, Featherston, South Wairarapa, Wellington

Set on a generous 809m² section on one of Featherston's most sought-after streets, 51 Wakefield Street, Featherston - this three-bedroom cottage is full of character and has been lovingly restored by the previous owner, a local artist and academic.

With an established backyard orchard and organic vegetable patch, and less than five minutes walk to Featherston station, it is a true gem for professionals or work-from-homers seeking a rural lifestyle close to the city.

Due to the previous owner's injury, the garden has suffered some neglect and is looking for some hands-on love to grow its huge potential to turn it into a community asset, side income, or full scale business. From garden pond to compost heap, the landscaping work has been done and all it needs is a good weed. A shed matching the house needs some repairs but is structurally sound and newly painted, offering potential for a sleep-out or studio. Inside the house you'll find well-appointed rooms, a tiled bathroom and kitchen, and a cosy wood burner ready to keep things toasty through winter evenings.

• Full day sunshine ensures savings on your energy bill.
• Off street parking is available.
• 5 minute walk to the train station for Wellington commuters
• Close to cafés, supermarket, medical centre and Featherston's famous bookshops

This is the kind of home where a little effort turns into something truly special - a character cottage with heart, sunshine, and loads of charm. Bring your gardening gloves and your appreciation for something a little out of the ordinary.
