67 Benson Road, Cheltenham, Manawatu

If you've been dreaming about getting out of town, having some space around you, and living a lifestyle that actually feels relaxed - this property is something special. Set on 12.10 acres (more or less), this is the kind of place where you can spread out and really enjoy country living without giving up comfort. Positioned well back from the road, the home itself has been designed with family life in mind. There are five great-sized bedrooms, two bathrooms (one being an ensuite for two bedrooms), and two separate living areas, so everyone has their own space when they need it. Whether it's busy mornings, kids hanging out with friends, or quiet evenings at home, the layout just works. The heart of the home is the open-plan kitchen and dining - a space that feels light, welcoming, and easy to live in. The kitchen features great storage space along with a breakfast bar and connects beautifully with the rest of the home, making it perfect for entertaining or simply keeping an eye on everything while dinners on. And then there's the outdoor area - this is where you'll want to spend most of your time. BBQs, long evenings with friends, family get-togethers - it's all set up for easy entertaining and enjoying the rural outlook year-round. Featuring a dedicated BBQ area and a large covered outdoor area, opening up to the lawn framed by the established grounds, the kids and pet animals will love running around here. One of the real highlights here is the shedding. If you need space for tools, toys, projects, vehicles, or machinery, you're going to love what's on offer. Including a garage with workshop space, new stables with a mezzanine floor, calf shed incorporated into the old cowshed, wood shed, workshop, and load out race and yards - there's loads of room, and the sheds add so much practicality and flexibility to the property. The land itself gives you options too - graze some livestock, there's room for the kids to explore, maybe a couple of horses, grow some delicious produce or simply enjoy the privacy and open space that's becoming harder and harder to find. Located minutes from Whakarongo School and an easy drive to Ashhurst and Palmerston North. Properties like this offer more than just a home - they offer a lifestyle. Space, freedom, privacy, and room to make memories for years to come. Call me today!
