24 Homebush Road, Masterton, Wairarapa

From an era of refined elegance and genteel living, a significant piece of architecture stands proud; a hallmark of its noted designer, Charles Tilleard Natusch.

Discreetly hidden along a private country lane, (yet mere moments from Masterton's CBD), accessed via sweeping circular driveway, this magnificent two-storey homestead was completed in 1892, showcasing the ornate detail, careful craftsmanship, and generous floor plan typical of Natusch's work. Inside, gorgeous timber features are a privilege to behold, whilst soaring ceilings, tall sash windows, and expansive rooms throughout simply enhance the richness of layers and attributes found within this beautiful home.

Multiple bedrooms and formal living spaces fulfil a variety of needs, all beautiful, unique, with aspects overlooking established grounds outside. A gracious ambiance pervades these rooms, where light and sunshine complement timeless comfort and elegant furnishings. Meanwhile, a farmhouse-style kitchen offers huge functionality - including a working coal range - and has been used in a commercial sense in the past. An upstairs bathroom offers the luxury of a clawfoot bath and separate shower, with toilets to service both floors and utility area. Heat pumps, fireplaces and HRV contribute to the warmth found here.

Further accommodation exists in the form of a separate one-bedroom cottage, creating opportunity for additional guests or income? And numerous outbuildings including a two room studio, provide comprehensive space for storage, shelter, tinkering, vehicles, planting and more.

Fruit/nut trees, berries, and prolific vegetable beds grace the property, complemented by verdant paddocks, a chicken coop, and the possibility for additional suitable husbandry.

Explore all opportunities within this esteemed property, for family, friends, and/or income? Perhaps a function venue/retreat? Or simply a secluded, self-sufficient haven.
