From the listing agent
In the words of Jennifer Gorrie, Arizto
Steeped in history and rich in character, this beautifully preserved villa offers a rare opportunity to secure a home that blends timeless craftsmanship with modern comfort. Positioned on a generous 1,001sqm section overlooking the Northern Wairoa River, you'll enjoy the best of both worlds – peaceful surroundings and the convenience of being just a short stroll from the heart of Dargaville.
From the moment you step inside, the warmth and personality of this home are unmistakable. Original timber floors, exposed beams and the generous proportions synonymous with classic villas create an inviting atmosphere that is difficult to replicate in today's homes.
Designed with practical family living in mind, the home offers approximately 160sqm of well-planned space. The master bedroom is conveniently located downstairs, while two loft-style bedrooms upstairs provide flexible accommodation for children, guests, hobbies or a work-from-home setup. The spacious lounge and dining area forms the heart of the home, complemented by a modernised kitchen and bathroom, two showers, a freestanding fireplace, heat pump and a sunny conservatory that adds extra versatility to everyday living. French doors open to a covered outdoor entertaining area, creating a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor spaces.
Step outside and discover a fully fenced 1,001sqm section with plenty of room for the whole family to enjoy. A substantial four-car garage provides exceptional storage and workshop options.
Conveniently located within easy reach of schools, shops, cafés and supermarkets, this home also places you a short drive from Baylys Beach and Glinks Gully, and the stunning Kai Iwi Lakes.
Homes of this calibre are becoming increasingly difficult to find. Combining generous family living, river views and a sought-after central location, this is a property with a story to tell and a future ready to be written.

Distances are from the parcel centroid to Topo 1:50k features (LINZ); site aspect is approximate, from the 1m LiDAR contours. Road frontage is a proxy — centreline intersection with parcel boundary, not a legal access measure. Confirm setbacks with a district-plan check before purchase.
