271 Watersons Line, Carterton, Wellington, 5791, New Zealand

Charlie married Connie in 1933 and this is the house that his brother Bill built for them. Owned by the same family since then, this is the first time it’s ever been to the market.

 

This 3 bedroom cottage is a private and quiet haven and one you definitely must see. With a west facing living room and incorporated sunroom, it’s sunny in the summer and, with a new woodburner (to be installed before the sale), cosy in the winter. There’s plenty of space in the combined kitchen/dining room to remodel to your heart’s delight. The three bedrooms are all good sizes and have inbuilt wardrobes. There’s a large barn (approx 9m x 6.2m) and a lean-to (approx 9m x 3.7m) for storage and one large paddock for you to keep a few sheep or a pony if you wish. The garage is at the front of the property and the large front yard has a stream running through. Hedging at the front and the side provide shelter and privacy and the outlook to the rear is over open farm land. Situated only minutes to Greytown or Carterton and less than 2 km to the Matarawa Railway Station. The Kuranui College bus passes the gate and it’s only 3km to Dalefield Primary School.
