Lifestyle without the work, vendors purchased
Some properties offer a home, this one offers a lifestyle. Set on a generous 1,185sqm section in a quiet, sought-after cul-de-sac surrounded by owner-occupied homes, this Renwick gem has been lovingly cared for and thoughtfully transformed from its original build, resulting in a home that's as functional and versatile as it is full of character.
Step inside and you'll find a modernised kitchen designed for effortless entertaining, complete with today's must-have appliances, soft-close drawers and gas cooking. The open-plan living and dining space is warm and inviting year-round, a log fire and heat pump keep things cosy in winter, while screen doors let the summer breeze flow through with ease. Adding real flexibility, a former garage has been cleverly converted into a habitable space with its own outdoor access, currently used as a bedroom, but ready to adapt to however you live. The main bathroom completes this level, while upstairs offers a guest bedroom and a generous master, both with great storage, plus a second bathroom with a standalone shower.
Step outside, though, and that's where this property truly comes alive. A dedicated outdoor living area sets the scene for long summer evenings, while a charming wooden cottage offers extra accommodation when the warmer months roll around. Add a chicken run, established fruit trees, thriving vegetable gardens, colourful flower beds and handy sheds, and you have a property bursting with possibility. A large, unattached double garage and generous off-street parking round out this exceptional offering.
Properties like this, well maintained, brimming with character and genuinely rare in the current market, don't come along often. If you've been dreaming of space, versatility and a true lifestyle change, this is the one to inspect. Call Glenn Kirby, your exclusive Bayleys listing agent, today to arrange your viewing before this opportunity is gone.
We estimate it would sell for $573,000 as at 5 October 2026, in a range of $490,000 to $652,000.
How we worked this out
| Council valuation, Jul 2023 | $570,000 |
|---|---|
| Market movement in Marlborough District since the council valuation | +0.7% |
| How Renwick sells against council values | +0.4% |
| Homes of this age in Renwick | −0.8% |
| Homes in this price range | +0.8% |
| Land as a share of the value | −0.7% |
| Nearby recent sales (15) | +0.2% |
| Our estimate | $573,000 |
We start from the council's rating valuation, move it by how sales in the area have moved since against their own council values, then by how properties like this one, nearby sales have done against the same arithmetic. Each step is an average of real sales. Tested every month against sales we had not seen: half land within about 6% of our estimate, and about 8 in 10 within the range. This is an automated estimate, not a registered valuation.

Building consents
We hold no building consents for this property yet. The council may hold records we have not seen.
If it is yours, claiming it puts the council record, the title and what it costs you to hold in one place — and lets you put your lending, insurance and power out to people who compete for them.
We check your name against the registered owner on the title before a claim is accepted. Nothing on this page changes for anyone else, and no provider is contacted until you ask.
Zoning and hazards
What the council's published maps say about this land. A map is a model of a storm, not a record of one: a LIM or a flood report says more.
Reading the council's maps…
What could you build here?
See whether a granny flat fits beside the house: the Building Act exemption, the national granny flat rules and the zone’s own. Then ask builders to price the shape you pick.
