Embraced by native bush, this richly detailed residence brings its unique presence to Gladstone, just outside of charming Carterton. Thoughtful design and a passion for landscaping set off the 377sqm country home. 

Coloured steel, cedar cladding and red entry doors invite you into this artfully crafted home. 

The open-plan living hall is light and spacious under high raking ceilings. Whitewashed tongue-and-groove forms a halo overhead. A huge open fire burns in a studded steel surround. Exposed steel portals and handmade light shades are just a couple of the other uniquely distinctive interiors details on show. 

With stacker sliders that open wide on two sides, the outdoor living spaces become an extension of the interior. One deck soaks up the native bush surrounds; the other opens onto a covered kwila deck, complete with woodburner, and beyond to a pool area. 

Separate wings house the master bedroom/ensuite, and two more bedrooms, a bathroom and office. Extra accommodation is located in the ply-lined attic above the garage. It’s ideal for grandkids.
