A lifestyle trophy

Set at the end of a sweeping driveway this charming 590sqm (more or less) home is full of surprises. Featuring a large and welcoming living room complete with woodburner and tiled surround, this elegant room opens out to the largest of two decks. You can imagine this home hosting many family gatherings and there's even room for a grand piano.
Built in the early 1900s with wide hallways, pressed tin ceilings in the dining room, high stud and original wooden floors, you can't help the feeling this home is special. The wooden clad kitchen and adjoining sitting area sings with warmth and character. This section of the home really feels like you are in a country cottage but with all the modern conveniences. The kitchen's peninsula allows for plenty of seating, so you'll never feel left out when you're preparing meals. The woodburner provides cosiness in winter and in summer you can spill out onto the second deck for al fresco dining.
The master with bay window includes a large wardrobe and has access to its own bathroom. A double bedroom and two smaller bedrooms and family bathroom complete the main part of the house.
Accessed via the master bedroom or by four sets of French doors to the expansive gardens, the heated indoor pool will surprise and delight. The purpose-built structure is designed for year-round enjoyment - throw open the doors to let the summer breezes in or close it all up tight for winter swims.
Out through the double carport is the 45sqm (more or less) studio. This is where you can let your imagination run wild. Complete with wood burner, a bathroom, its own deck plus a mezzanine floor, this would be an ideal workspace, accommodation option, gym, or space for creating art or music - just bring your ideas.
If it's land you are after - 1.6879ha (more or less) ought to provide enough space for a few animals and a great lifestyle. Waverley is a lovely community located just 44kms from Whanganui and 44kms to Hawera.
