The Roadman’s Cottage
SORRY NOW SOLD
Step back in time some 96 years ago when this was the county roadman’s resting place after a hard days labour. The freehold 3.9 hectares is mostly steep hillside, densely planted with some 2400 Eucalyptus gums and 200 natives. Fully fenced and grazable plus there’s a good sized house paddock handy for raising calves etc. Assorted old sheds, new hen house, small old milking shed and a 20 foot lock up container for additional storage. Roof water catchment and the pure spring water is a bonus. The three bedroom home is a real do-upper that still retains a touch of days gone by with painted T & G walls and a no frills country kitchen with a classic Shacklock coal range that does all the cooking and also heats the water. The family room is warmed by a wood burner and there’s awesome valley views from the add on conservatory. Approximately 25mins into Carterton or Masterton and the Gladstone Tavern is just 15 minutes down the road. The Gladstone primary school bus stops at the gate.
