Prestigious Homestead in College Estate

They don’t make them like this anymore. Not with four bedrooms, an office, two bathrooms, three carparks and over 320 sqm of living, all on a sweeping 2592 sqm section which offers views out to Mount Ruapehu and which is located in one of Whanganui’s most prestigious suburbs. Set in leafy, heritage-rich College Estate, this magnificent property isn’t just a home, it’s an opportunity. To upsize. To host. To live large, inside and out.

Inside, you’ll find that this home is a masterpiece of classical style and modern comfort and has been lovingly renovated to the highest standard. There’s a formal lounge with ornate ceilings, a family room tucked quietly at the back, and not one but two sunrooms, each opening to private outdoor spots. The kitchen? Generously sized, centrally placed, with wraparound bench space and a relaxed dining nook on one side and a formal dining room on the other. You’ll host a crowd without breaking stride.

The downstairs bedroom has its own ensuite and a huge walk-in wardrobe, perfect as a private primary suite or guest haven. Upstairs, three more bedrooms (one absolutely huge), a central bathroom, and a separate office give you the flexibility to live, work or escape.

An exquisitely warm and classically beautiful home which has been a much loved family home for over 35 years.

Out back, the terraced garden feels like a secret park complete with flat zones for lawn games, raised veggie beds for the green thumbs, and space enough for a pool, studio, or a lazy afternoon in the sun. There’s also a shed for tools or tinkering, and three-car parking tucked off-street.

The location is superb and is in very close proximity to top schools including Whanganui Collegiate, and just a few minutes to the town centre. The neighbourhood is known for its heritage homes, tree-lined streets and a strong sense of community.
