Engaging in its simplicity, the stylish two-bedroom main residence, creates an attractive atmosphere for everyday living. Constructed in ever reliable concrete tilt slab, the design creates clean lines and easy angles, saturated in natural light through north facing floor to ceiling windows along the length of the living. Dividing the dual living spaces, is an open plan kitchen featuring stainless steel benchtops, timber joinery, large walk-in pantry and gas hobs. Accommodation is at separate ends of the home, with the master enjoying an executive tiled ensuite and a separate bathroom servicing the second bedroom.

Expansive landscaping surrounds the home, gardens filled with an abundance of wildflowers, specimen trees of grand scale, plenty of vegetable gardens, with a scattering of fruit trees lining the entrance. The covered patio overlooks the flat lawn, into the vines, and to the ranges beyond.

Separate from the home, a generous one-bedroom studio provides the perfect space for extended family and guests, or an ideal option for an air b’n’b venture. The sleepout is complete with its own private patio area, a small log fire and a large, well-appointed bathroom. Two freestanding offices could provide a business venture, work from home space or be perfect for conversion into a sauna, overlooked by a unique feature, the watch tower.

With the area renowned for having some of Marlborough’s most fertile silt soils, the vendors meticulosity developed 5.60 hectares of sauvignon blanc in 2023.

The block comes with a grape supply agreement in place to one of the region’s longest standing family wine companies with full contract management able to be arranged for owners wishing to enjoy a hands-off lifestyle.

Impressive shedding completes the property.
