6409 State Highway 6, Rai Valley, Marlborough, Marlborough

Determined to downsize, our vendors are handing over the keys to their character packed homestead; a rare country retreat which offers the most peaceful existence imaginable!

Spread over two levels, the well-presented home features three bedrooms, two living areas, an office, a modern bathroom, en-suite and a modern country kitchen. Versatile living spaces cater to families of all shapes and sizes with open plan living/dining downstairs and another large living room upstairs. The wood burner, heat-pump, insulation and the HRV guarantee year-round comfort.

Outside, birdsong fills the air and the babble of running water in the park-like gardens will soothe your mind. Numerous fruit trees enhance the returns from the veggie garden and the chickens top it off with fresh eggs from their run. Established lawns and gardens enhance the 3 HA country setting of lush pasture on which you can run sheep and beef, or lease for grazing. The double garage has been extended to include a large workshop, loads of storage and a small studio/hobby room. The home is set well back from State Highway 6 and off-street parking abounds. Rainwater storage is 65,000 L and is UV and cartridge filtered.

Don't miss the convenience of the location. Rai Valley township is a five-minute drive, as is amazing swimming in crystal clear waters at Pelorus Bridge. Both the Rai and Pelorus Rivers are nearby for trout fishing, blue cod fishing is 25 minutes away at Okiwi Bay and hunting opportunities abound. Nelson and Blenheim can be reached within 45 minutes and there's a school bus at the gate.

From families craving open space to retired farmers who need a hobby, the well-presented home and property are guaranteed to attract a lot of attention. Call Owen now for more information.
