The ideal blend of family and function

Set across 8,651 sqm of beautifully established grounds, this four-bedroom, two-bathroom residence is the perfect size lifestyle block for those taking their first step into the country, while being close enough to town for those downsizing from a larger rural block. The property offers comfort, privacy, and versatility in equal measure, and will cater to all who value their space, location and storage.

The 176 sqm home unfolds with natural ease. In the western end of the home, a spacious master suite with ensuite and walk-in robe, are complemented by three additional bedrooms and a family bathroom. Light-filled living zones anchor the home at its heart, where generous proportions and a functional layout provide great connection. Recently renovated, the spacious kitchen provides a modern touch, featuring quality appliances and excellent storage. The open plan living flows seamlessly through a sliding door to the north facing deck - the perfect stage for long summer evenings, relaxed gatherings, or morning coffee among the gardens. Outside, mature landscaping encircles the home, creating a sense of sanctuary and charm. A large flat lawn is perfect for the family to enjoy, fully fenced for peace of mind.

The large double garage and sealed driveway at the entrance to the property deliver ample parking and easy access for multiple vehicles, campers, trailers or boats. At the rear of the property are two generous deer-fenced paddocks, with a separate access off Vintage Lane. The land provides flexibility for lifestyle pursuits, hobby farming with stock and chickens, or space for pets to roam, while a large five bay shed with a concrete floor and one enclosed bay provides substantial storage or workshop space.

Positioned in a coveted stretch of Rapaura Road, you’re ideally located for access to both Havelock and Picton to explore the Marlborough Sounds, five minutes to the airport and moments from Marlborough’s celebrated vineyards, brilliant wineries, restaurants and breweries. This is a home that elevates everyday living into something exceptional: where space, quality and lifestyle align. The vendors have made the decision to downsize, presenting you the chance to secure this well-rounded lifestyle as your next home.
