98 Godfrey Road, Fairhall, Marlborough

Big living, big views, big potential

Set against a sweeping vineyard backdrop with the Richmond Ranges beyond, this property presents a rare opportunity to secure a substantial country home that delivers space, flexibility and outlook in equal measure. This property is ready for its new owners to make it their own.

Positioned on approximately 3,293sqm (subject to final survey), this generously proportioned family home has been thoughtfully designed across two well-considered levels, allowing for both connection and separation. At its heart lies a large open-plan living zone enjoying plenty of natural light, where an updated kitchen anchors the space and flows effortlessly to dining, outdoors and both formal and informal living areas. This is a home that easily accommodates busy family life, entertaining, and relaxed everyday living.

Multiple living spaces provide welcome versatility. A sun-drenched bay window captures morning light in the spacious lounge, perfect for a quiet retreat, media room, or an area for children to spread out. Five well-sized bedrooms and three bathrooms ensure there is room for everyone, guests included, with layouts that suit extended family living or work-from-home requirements. Comfort is assured year-round with multiple heat pumps and fireplaces in both living areas.

Accommodation is intelligently arranged across the dwelling. Downstairs, two double bedrooms share a family bathroom, while a generous master suite features a walk-in wardrobe, ensuite and direct outdoor access. Upstairs at one end, is a large room with an ensuite and inbuilt storage, providing a great multi-use space. Currently set up as a gym, the area is ideally suited as a bedroom and can cater for work from home needs, operate as a games room, or provide extra accommodation for the family or guests. Above the other end of the home, is a room of equal size with inbuilt storage, again suited as a bedroom or for similar uses in such a large space.

Outdoors, established gardens and expansive lawns create a sheltered and peaceful environment. There are several patio areas to enjoy and entertain, with vineyard rows stretching toward the ranges delivering a daily reminder of the Marlborough lifestyle so many desire.

Practicality is equally well addressed by a substantial three-car garage, with workshop space and excellent storage. Above the garage, a large rumpus room adds further flexibility, perfect as a games room, teen retreat or studio.

Located in the ever-popular Fairhall, you'll appreciate the balance of rural tranquillity with convenient access to wineries, amenities and the Marlborough Sounds. Zoned for Renwick school, five minutes to Marlborough airport, and ten minutes to Blenheim. If you are searching for lifestyle living without compromise, this sizeable family home deserves your attention.
