Carterton - Off-grid paradise

Description

Discover your serene escape in the tranquil Mangatarere Valley, where this charming retreat awaits its next devoted owners. Enveloped by native bush and the melodies of birdsong, this little piece of paradise offers the perfect blend of nature and comfort.
Constructed in 2008, this American Barn-style home features three bedrooms and a spacious upstairs area that opens onto a private balcony. Here, you can unwind with a book or simply savor the bliss of living in such a picturesque setting. The house is well-insulated, equipped with a heat transfer system, and double-glazed windows, ensuring warmth and coziness during winter. A wood burner/cooker adds a rustic touch while providing ample heat.
The property is powered by an advanced off-grid system, including 8 solar panels, a generator, and a small hydro system, all connected to a low-maintenance battery bank housed in its own power shed. This system has proven more than sufficient for the current owners' needs.
While some interior finishing work remains, this offers a wonderful opportunity to add your personal touches. With a bit of customisation, this 4.85-hectare (more or less) rural haven can be your perfect retreat.
