Well-dressed in classic Linea weatherboard, this Wairarapa home marries traditional looks with modern comforts. 

Based on a standard Landmark plan, the Rata design, this dwelling delivers two spacious living areas, complemented by an entertainer’s kitchen. 

Twin ovens will appeal to the passionate home chef and entertainer, allowing dinner and dessert to be cooked in unison. The walk-in pantry is a bonus.

Direct access to outside allows for seamless serving to the alfresco dining area. The large portico is an ideal spot to relax with good company in the rural surrounds. Schist columns add a rustic feel at the gable-end.

A separate lounge, adjacent to the open-plan family area, features a recessed gas fire. It’s a great spot for putting your feet up on cold nights. When the weather’s fine, enjoy the flow to the patio. 

Four bedrooms, two bathrooms and three-car garaging round out the 253sqm floor-plan. The main bathroom is beautifully finished with a tiled floor and equipped with a glass box shower and freestanding tub. This is the life.
