Beautiful, original and timeless, this 1922 English cottage is also affectionately known as the Gingerbread House.
English Cottage by design, but certainly not by size, this 250sqm, four bedroom character home sits splendidly upon 2125sqm of elevated section. Plantings of well pruned fruit trees, roses and some majestic giants adorn these generously laid-out grounds.
The ground floor features two delightful living areas, one with a North-facing porch, the other with an attached formal dining room. A stylish new kitchen with a stunning satin-finish native floor and scullery greet you upon entrance and a fourth bedroom/study boasts a beautiful ornate fireplace.
The original wooden-bannister staircase leads to a further three bedrooms, including a fabulous master bedroom with balcony showcasing fabulous views of Waipawa and its rural surrounds. An original-styled bathroom completes this second floor.
The covered back porch houses a laundry and shower, a separate toilet and a bonus studio room which has operated as a hairdressing salon in the past. Access continues through the porch to a large lockable double garage with automatic doors, containing a workshop and large firewood shed.
This two storied character home, full of beautiful original features is well positioned being within walking distance to the local supermarket and the thriving Waipawa township.
