Absolute Beauty in Featherston

A beautifully restored 4 bedroom Villa (1914) set back from the street on a sunny private section. A spacious house featuring stunning kauri wooden floors and doors, a tiled bathroom with clawfoot bath, a formal dining room with fireplace, a large lounge with indoor outdoor flow, a single car garage/workshop and a peaceful, sunny and sheltered backyard for those long lunches under the Oak tree.\nThe house was extensively renovated in the late 80's when it was repiled, rewired and re-plumbed, the interior was relined and the garage built. The current owners have re-painted the exterior, painted the roof and replaced the valley, re-insulated the roof, refreshed the interior paint, installed both a heat pump and hrv system, re-curtained all windows and landscaped and paved the backyard.\nThe master bedroom features a woodburner for cozy winter nights. The other three bedrooms are all double size with wardrobes.\nThere is an original open fireplace in the dining room and a pot belly stove in the kitchen with a wetback that saves on water heating costs.\nThere is ample off-street parking, a large front lawn for kicking a ball around, established vegetable and native gardens and a large enclosed backyard for running around with the kids or a dog.\nFeatherston is a friendly and relaxed community and this house would suit either a young or older couple/family. It's a perfect place to commute, or work from. It's 5mins walk to the train station, 1 hour drive or train to Wellington, a 3-5mins walk to schools, kindy, playground and the supermarket. The wider area is a major tourist drawcard with world renowned vineyards in Martinborough only 10mins away, antique shops and galleries only 5 mins away in Greytown, bushwalks and a beautiful swimming hole only 5mins away in the Rimutaka/Taurarua hills and a stunning, wild and rustic coast only 30-40mins away.\n
