68a Marchant Road, Kaitoke, Upper Hutt, Wellington

Calling Extended Families, Contractors, Tradies, Car Enthusiasts - here's a fabulous opportunity to purchase a lifestyle property on approx. 4.16ha of flat to rolling land with a second massive outbuilding (or potential 2nd dwelling for accomodation), plus a beautiful wetland conservation area. It's definitely the place you'll want to call home, under an hour's drive from Wellington, 15 minutes to Upper Hutt CBD or a 7 minute drive to Maymorn train station.

This home is a pleasant retreat from working life. Built around 2003 but with extensive renovations in 2021, it features four bedrooms (or 3 plus work from home office) including a master suite with walk through wardrobe and a beautifully appointed semi ensuite (toilet & vanity). In another wing, the additional bedrooms are well-sized, 2 having built in wardrobes, ensuring ample storage throughout the home. The large family bathroom hosts a corner spa bath and shower plus 2nd separate toilet.

Adjacent to the family home with its own access is an impressive shed/workshop facility with 3-phase power. The 120sqm (approx.) building features 3 roller doors (one high stud 2.56m2) and amenities (toilet with vanity, washing machine & hot water cylinder). The configuration and features will meet a wide variety of uses with endless possibilities for storage, contractors' workshop, car enthusiasts, the Motorhome, Boat or hobbies. With council consent, there may be potential to convert all or a portion of this large structure. Thinking of bringing parents or family closer or simply extra income - you choose?

The designer kitchen is a showstopper, it's the heart of the home. A spacious island bench is the perfect centrepiece for entertaining or family gatherings with top appliances and induction cooking. Your comfort is ensured throughout the seasons with a cosy log burner, 2 heat pumps, a ceiling fan and HRV. Practicality is also prioritized with a modern separate laundry.

The seamless indoor-outdoor flow from the living areas to the lovely outdoor space makes this property ideal for year-round entertaining, whether you're hosting friends or simply enjoying the peace and privacy this property offers.

Further outbuildings include a separate open 3-bay implement/hay shed. There is excellent water storage (60,000ltrs), plus modern stockyards and a chook house.

Of special significance is an approx. 1.06acre fully fenced wetland restoration under a QEII covenant. There are several varieties of fruit trees plus a healthy vegetable garden. There are 7 well fenced and gated paddocks, and if you want your very own property to graze horses, its all here at this well maintained ex-dairy farm with lush clover rich grass and an excellent trough system over the entire property.

Kaitoke is a wonderful community, with community minded and friendly people. There is a school bus service and the Aston Norwood Cafe & Garden Centre is a great place to catch up for a coffee and chat. The well-known Rimutaka Rail trail is just minutes away, and it's a short drive over the hill to the Wairarapa for many of the other activities that this region offers.

This would be a great move for business orientated people, families keen for adventures, horse lovers or those seeking self-sustainability, privacy and freedom. LIM & Builders report available.
