17 Matai Street, Marton, Rangitikei

For more than 150 years, The Manse has stood proudly overlooking Marton, quietly witnessing generations come and go while remaining one of the town's most treasured residences. Constructed in 1873, this remarkable Mid-Victorian home is one of Marton's oldest residences, offering an extraordinary opportunity to become the next custodian of a property rich in history, character and possibility. Positioned on an elevated site just moments from the heart of town, the home immediately captures your attention with its timeless presence. Traditional sash windows, soaring ceilings, native timber flooring and the generous proportions synonymous with Victorian architecture create an atmosphere that simply cannot be replicated. Every room tells part of the home's story, while offering an inspiring canvas for its future. Designed to adapt to the changing needs of family life, the home unfolds over two levels. Downstairs, the welcoming lounge is warmed by a new wood burner, creating the perfect place to gather on cooler evenings, while the charming parlour offers a formal sitting room or peaceful retreat. The country-style kitchen forms the practical heart of the home, flowing through to a generous mudroom, while a downstairs bedroom and family bathroom provide flexibility for guests, extended family or everyday living. Upstairs, three further bedrooms continue the home's sense of space and character, including a generous master complete with a walk-in wardrobe. A dual-access bathroom serves both the master and landing, providing the convenience of either an ensuite or family bathroom. One of The Manse's greatest advantages is the freedom it offers. While deeply connected to Marton's past, the property is not heritage listed, allowing future owners the opportunity to restore, renovate or thoughtfully modernise without heritage restrictions. Whether your vision is to carefully preserve its Victorian elegance or blend its historic charm with contemporary comforts, the possibilities are as exciting as they are rare. Homes of this significance seldom come to market. They cannot be recreated, only cared for and appreciated by those who recognise their value. The Manse is far more than a beautiful character home; it is a remarkable piece of Marton's history, ready for its next chapter to be written by someone who will cherish its past while embracing its future.
