2322 Moutere Highway

Kahurangi Muse

Hold on to your heartstrings, they are about to be tested! 2322 Moutere Highway is a dream property – presenting extraordinary character, views, space and lifestyle versatility.

This beautiful 1890’s homestead with gorgeous wrap-around verandah is beyond charming and yet extremely functional for the modern family. A versatile design that is complemented by high ceilings, rough sawn timbers, polished Rimu flooring, French doors and sash windows. The bedrooms are spacious and characterful, while every room of the house opens onto the verandah with grandstand views of Mt Arthur and the Kahurangi Ranges.

An extension to the villa in 2007 has added open-plan form and function, all the while sympathetically enhancing the original floorplan. The entire house is impressively able to warm or cool as needed, with the benefit of double glazing, a large woodburner, HRV and a heat transfer system. Perfectly positioned to capture all-day sun and yet tucked away from prevailing winds.

A charming ‘she shed’ in the garden provides the ultimate in personal space or home office/studio, while the double garage, workshop and stables make this an ideal pony property or farmlet. There are 4 well-appointed paddocks over 2.3 hectares, with a natural water source for stock use. Completing the picture, the property has its own water supply servicing the house.

Only 8 minutes to Motueka and 15 minutes to Mapua, this is an extremely convenient location for those looking for the best of rural living without the isolation factor. Demand for lifestyle properties as complete as this one is high, so don’t delay.
