About this property
There's something wonderfully easy about 3 Feist Street. Plenty of room without being overwhelming, a big backyard ready for kids, pets and summer evenings, and a location that puts everyday Carterton life within easy reach.
Set on 832m² (more or less), this redecorated 130m² home offers three bedrooms, a modern kitchen, bathroom with separate toilet, separate laundry and - one of our favourite features - two living spaces.
The main living area gives you room to spread out, while the second can be closed off to create the ultimate family nook. Think movie nights, books and beanbags, gaming, toys, homework or simply somewhere to retreat when everyone needs their own space. In winter, it's an especially cosy spot to settle in by the fire.
The kitchen is modern, practical and filled with morning sun, with a generous window above the sink keeping you connected with what's happening outside.
And there's plenty happening out there.
The well-fenced backyard offers loads of lawn for kids and four-legged family members, along with established fruit trees - including some seriously productive feijoas - and plenty of room to enjoy the outdoors without creating a maintenance headache.
When the weather plays ball, fire up the pizza oven, gather around the BBQ area and make an evening of it. There's even a rainwater collection tank to lend a hand with the garden when watering restrictions kick in.
Need extra space beyond the house? You've got that too. A double garage and carport take care of vehicles and storage, while the separate studio on piles at the rear of the property opens up even more possibilities - hobby room, creative space, work-from-home zone, gym or somewhere to escape the household hustle.
Then there's the location.
Carterton's town centre, parks, library, schools, swimming pool, supermarket, cafés and train station are all within easy reach, while nearby bus stops and straightforward access north make getting towards Masterton simple. And with Clareville Bakery close enough to make fresh bread and pastry runs dangerously convenient, weekend treats are well covered too.
The current owners have loved the friendly neighbours, peaceful surroundings, expansive Wairarapa skies and a home that has simply worked well for family life.
Three bedrooms. Two living spaces. A studio. Big backyard. Double garage. Pizza oven.
There's a lot packed into this one - and plenty of space to make it your own.
3 Feist Street, Carterton - easy living, with a little more room for life.
