Some properties tell a story and 1766 Kahutara Road is no exception. Once a modest rural home, this 1930's residence was part of one of the first dairy farms in the area, deeply rooted in South Wairarapa's rich agricultural history. Today, it stands as a stunning blend of heritage and contemporary luxury, thanks to a remarkable 2022-23 transformation.
Original matai flooring, rimu architraves, and skirting boards preserve the home's character, while modern enhancements provide effortless comfort. Ducted heating and cooling, a DVS system, double glazing, and underfloor heating in both bathrooms ensure year round warmth. A freestanding fireplace, set against a striking schist stone backdrop, creates a cosy and inviting heart of the home.
The custom kitchen is a chef's dream, featuring a butler's sink, granite benchtops, sleek cabinetry, and a walk-in pantry. The open plan design flows seamlessly to two covered outdoor entertaining areas, perfect for sunset gatherings.
With three spacious bedrooms, including a master suite with a walk-in wardrobe and luxury ensuite, the home is designed for comfort. The media room easily converts into a fourth bedroom if needed. A family bathroom, adorned with Italian tiles and premium tapware, features a clawfoot bath for ultimate relaxation. Every room is fitted with TV and direct WiFi wall connections.
Beyond the home, bore water, rainwater collection with UV filtration, and vegetable gardens provide self sufficiency. Fruit and nut trees, including plum, walnut, apple, and citrus, offer seasonal delights. Several sheds, including a fully operational wool shed and a piggery, add to the property's functionality and character.
Set in the welcoming Kahutara community, this property is a paradise for outdoor enthusiasts, with duck shooting, fishing, and Ngawi just 10 minutes away. Kahutara School is only a 5 minute drive, making this an ideal retreat for families looking for a blend of history, nature, and modern living.
