Affordable Marlborough Lifestyle....

Discover an affordable property perfect for those seeking an entry-level lifestyle or looking to downsize from a larger rural block without moving to town. Welcome to 189 Gulch Road, Ward - a charming countryside retreat that combines peaceful living with a convenient location. Nestled in the serene beauty of the Flaxbourne area in South Marlborough, this delightful property is ready to embrace its new owners.

Located just south of sunny Blenheim, off SH1 on a sealed road, this 3.5333ha (8.7 acres) property features a country home with three bedrooms and two bathrooms. The kitchen offers ample bench space, an electric stove, and a log fire stove. The open-plan dining and lounge areas lead to one of two sunrooms and a wrap-around covered veranda. The north-facing home captures all-day sun, and a freestanding log fire keeps you cosy in winter while you enjoy picturesque country views. The main bathroom has been upgraded with a bath, shower, and toilet, while the second bathroom includes a shower and toilet.

The well-established grounds boast lawns, mature trees, and an abundance of fruit trees, creating a pleasant country environment. Adjacent to the home is a quality four-bay shed, with one bay serving as a powered workshop - ideal for a lifestyle property. Additional sheds provide space for hay and storage. The flat land is fenced into two large paddocks with troughs, perfect for running sheep, and a few cattle, or giving the kids space for a pony or horses. The property is close to Ward Primary School and township facilities, with Ward Beach nearby to enjoy the best of the Flaxbourne area. Blenheim and Kaikoura are also within easy reach.

After enjoying this piece of paradise for over 58 years, our vendor is ready to move to town for a well-earned rest, offering you an excellent opportunity to secure an affordable lifestyle property you've always wanted.
