Description
Character Home on 5 Acres – Prime Longburn Location
A rare lifestyle offering on the edge of Palmerston North, this 2.02 ha (approx. 5 acres) property brings together a timeless character residence and a historic horticultural setting. The legacy is a beautiful garden environment with large, mature hedging that creates a wonderfully private and established atmosphere—a backdrop that simply cannot be recreated today.
The Home
Set amongst mature trees and gardens, this character villa offers generous proportions and all the charm of a bygone era. Traditional features, wide spaces and warm timber tones combine with a modern kitchen and serene garden views, creating a home with genuine soul and everyday enjoyment.
The Land
Five flat, usable acres in an exceptional Longburn location. Rich river-silt soils make the land easy to garden, plant, or farm. Just minutes from the city, yet surrounded by rural quiet, this is an ideal setting for lifestyle buyers seeking privacy, space and opportunity.
An Established Horticultural Legacy
For decades, the property operated as a flourishing nursery and small-scale horticultural and beekeeping business. Some of the original infrastructure remains—shade-house frames, workshops, shelter belts and hydrangeas that still bloom each season (and are still supplied to a local florist). There is ample usable space for hobbies, projects, or those looking to step into an income-generating rural venture.
Whether you choose to revive aspects of the old operation, reinvent the property into something new, or simply enjoy the established grounds and the charm of a character home in the country, the choice is entirely yours.
