Your piece of history

Set at the heart of a tight-knit rural community on 8093m2 (title is limited as to parcels) of land, this former rural primary school presents a genuinely rare opportunity to secure a property rich in history, space and potential. Just a scenic 30 minute drive from both Masterton and Carterton, the setting offers the peace and simplicity of country living while remaining well connected to town amenities. At its centre is a three bedroom house providing an immediate base to live in or rent while you explore the many future possibilities the property offers. Surrounding the home are the original school buildings, full of character and nostalgia, lending themselves to a wide range of uses subject to council consent. Whether you envision creative studios, workshops, storage, community facilities or a unique live-work environment, the scale and layout invite imagination. An old school swimming pool remains on site, a reminder of generations past and a feature that could be restored, re-purposed or incorporated into a broader redevelopment plan. The open grounds and established rural setting provide space to breathe, create and connect, with room for gardens, gatherings or further development. This is more than just a property; it's a chance to become part of a rural story, to breathe new life into a place that once sat at the centre of its community. For those seeking something truly different, with history, heart and opportunity, this former country school is ready for its next chapter.
