If you love character or simply seek a home with a difference, this 1923 Whatman Cottage ticks the box.
Part of an iconic slice of Masterton's westside history, it's one of 11 cottages constructed for WW1 returned soldiers. From an era of solidly built houses, the homes are highly regarded for their unique, resilient architectural design. Beautiful timber and brick work feature.
Teenagers will love the sense of independence two attic bedrooms provide. You may enjoy them as home office/hobby space, away from distractions.
Warmed by a wood burner with the option to use the heat pump, the home offers combined living spaces and dining. Step through to the adjoining kitchen and out to the private, sunny deck and yard. The 1070m2 (more or less) section offers scope for gardeners, space for pets and children to play, a single garage and rustic shed.
Relax at the end of the day with a soak in the gorgeous tub, a salute to yesteryear.
Situated in a super convenient location. Walk to the dairy, the train or Upper Plain Shops. Schools and Mitre 10 are nearby. Quick access to the bypass road for commuters driving north or south.
After nearly 40 years the current owner is down sizing from her family home. Contact Yvonne Craig-Simpson to view: 027 235 9755 or yvonne.craig-simpson@raywhite.com
