Idyllic Country Residence
Well and presented and with scope for future upgrading, this rural leasehold property in delightful Brooklyn has definite family appeal. Tranquil and sun-kissed the home is blessed with glorious pastoral, hill and mountain views and sits amid 1725sqm of lovely grounds that are bordered by a babbling stream. Set back from the roadside there is ample parking on the drive for multiple vehicles.
Built in the 1960s, the home is surprisingly spacious; there are four bedrooms, a shower room, a laundry and a separate toilet. The bonus is the versatile floor plan, which can be adapted to suit your needs. Perhaps you want to set up your office or hobby room, or maybe have a separate lounge or bedroom for occasional guests or extended family. You could certainly consider doing any of the above.
The living areas are also generously proportioned, with a separate lounge that has a traditional wood-burning fire and wetback, and a kitchen-diner flowing out to the sheltered al fresco living areas, ideal for summer entertaining. For winter, or when you need an additional quick blast of warmth there's a heat pump to keep you cosy.
An opportunity exists to upgrade the home to your requirements in the future, adding value in the process. However everything is clean and tidy, so you may want to wait a while. Certainly, there are some lovely original features you might want to retain, such as the stripped timber floors and vintage joinery.
The fully-fenced grounds are ideal for pets and children and although large, are arranged to be easy-care. There's a flat lawn, citrus trees and plenty of space to grow vegetables, plus there's a carport, a woodshed and a garage with a workshop, ideal for days spent 'tinkering'.
And the location? Well, it's a mere stroll to the settlement's primary school and only a ten minute drive to Motueka CBD. Sounds perfect for you? Could be, so call me!
