228 Norfolk Road Carterton, Carterton District

This is a truly special lifestyle property where character, space, and versatility come together.

Set on just over 1.7 hectares (subject to final survey), the property offers the perfect balance between luxury family living and genuine income potential, whether through fully self-contained guest accommodation or a boutique Airbnb setup.

At its heart is a grand character home, thoughtfully relocated and beautifully enhanced, spanning an impressive 350sqm. From the moment you step inside, the home immediately captures you with its high-stud ceilings, rich character features, and sense of warmth that only a home like this can provide. Traditional charm blends seamlessly with modern convenience, creating spaces that feel both welcoming and functional.

The kitchen sits at the centre of the home, well designed with a walk-in pantry and flowing effortlessly into both formal and casual living and dining areas. These spaces open out to a sun-soaked patio and expansive lawns, landscaped for easy care while still delivering that sense of openness and freedom lifestyle buyers are searching for.

Comfort is assured year-round with two wood burners and two heat pumps, providing warmth, atmosphere, and efficiency through every season.

The main house offers four generously sized bedrooms, supported by a family bathroom, while the master suite enjoys its own ensuite and walk-in wardrobe - a private retreat at the end of the day.

Separate to the main home is a fully self-contained one-bedroom cottage, ideal for extended family, guests, or as a strong income stream. With the growing number of visitors drawn to the Wairarapa for wine events, food and music festivals, and the region's iconic balloon festival, the property is exceptionally well positioned to capitalise on boutique accommodation demand.

For those seeking land and equestrian facilities, the block is superbly set up with extensive stabling, tack room, wash bay, round pen, and bore-fed paddocks, making it equally appealing for horse lovers or those simply wanting space and flexibility.

The location completes the picture - just minutes to both Masterton and Carterton, and a little over an hour from Wellington, offering the best of rural living without sacrificing convenience.

This is a property with soul, scale, and serious lifestyle appeal - one that must be experienced to be fully appreciated.
