In the best of English style, this magnificent turn-of-the century villa & separate self-contained cottage offer elegant living on park-like grounds. Set down a long, tree-lined driveway on 3 hectares of land, the home itself has the charm of history with the comfort of new. In the main house the 3 bedrooms, 3 living areas, 2 bathrooms (with spa bath) and modern farmhouse-style kitchen are heated by wood and gas fires and a heat exchange system. The in-wall and in-ceiling insulation mean you keep the warmth in, so you can enjoy your beautiful home even more on cold winter nights. Of course during the heat of a long, hot, Wairarapa summer it will be the swimming pool that gets the most use - it is heated though, so even on the coldest days a 28-degree dip will be a pleasant prospect. As well as the main residence, there is a separate self-contained cottage that has been used as a successful homestay, plus a studio bedroom alongside the double garage that would suit artists, guests, or teenagers. Like all good estates, this property is not just decorative. It is also set up to be a useable working farmlet. For those who have horses, or specialised stock such as highland cattle, there are numerous outbuildings (with power) including a horse stall, float bay, tack shed, haybarn, stockyards, and loading ramp.
