Historical Restoration, or Start From Scratch?
Vendor looking for a quick clean sale - Located within minutes of the quaint Tapawera village for your most essential necessities, this historically charming residentially zoned church on its own easy-care 1088m2 parcel of land is the ultimate find for those requiring a budget-pleasing place to base themselves, whether it be motorhomers or the hunters and gatherers brigade, or the restoration junkies among us.
With 80m2 of relatively sound interior to play with including the original timber ceilings and vestry entrance, you can let your imagination run wild - turn the main body of the church into a sizeable open plan kitchen dining and living space, whilst converting the old kitchen area out the back to a modestly appropriate bedroom and ensuite bathroom. It's your call really, what would you do?
The exterior of the church needs some serious attention from DIY enthusiasts to restore it to its former glory but it's not impossible, just think outside the box... Could this be your classic kiwi Bach or base in which to pursue some hop growing, hunting, fishing, or star gazing activities? Outside, the fully fenced section ensures there's ample room for what your needs must, be it to park the motorhome and the boat, plant some fruit trees, or just keep a pet sheep to 'mow' the grass.
And then, of course, there's the key location, it's a centrally located spot where you can base yourself, not too far to Tapawera but far enough to be classed as conveniently remote, or head one way to Nelson or the other to Motueka and the famous Abel Tasman, the world really is your oyster in any direction.
With plenty of scope for future enhancement, or start from scratch, this is truly an entry-level freehold opportunity to own a piece of New Zealand's history, so if you are ready for a change of pace, don't put off calling me.
Notes - No power, water supply or septic, needs repiling. Virtually staged furniture.
