14 Princess Street, Martinborough, South Wairarapa

Choices - Potential - Location

This, by now, extremely rustic three bedroom villa is believed to have been built in 1910 for the then Mayor of Martinborough and has been run for the past eighteen years as the self-contained homestay Stock Route Cottage enjoying particular demand for the Wine Festival and Martinborough Fairs with its location only four blocks from the square and a short stroll to several wineries. There is potential to restore or to rebuild on this 1467m2 sub-divisible house lot (subject to council approval). Outbuildings include a single garage/workshop, woodshed and chook house and the garden was once a veritable orchard of heritage fruit varieties.

The rural feeling of the villa is enhanced by two further adjacent sections on separate titles - Lot 3 (1118m2) and Lot 2 a corner site (809m2). These sites enjoy uninterrupted views across Considine and Centennial Parks to the Tararua Ranges and south to the sunset over Lake Ferry some 30kms away. The open aspect and orientation would easily allow building to make the most of both sun and views. Then, of course, there is the convenient location and proximity to the village and all its amenities.

The choice is yours - purchase the three titles together or select which section best suits your needs.
