139 Main Street Mataura, Gore District

You may have succumbed to the doldrums of city life, with all the hustle and bustle and high density traffic; you're feeling miffed and somehow can't cope or quite hack it; well hang in there and dream of reeling in the good life and going back to living basic.

This once thriving Mataura cottage requires a vision, a paint brush, blood sweat and tears, imagination and some charismatic magic. To keep the renovations rolling on this cottage classic, there is a café nearby to embolden the courageous caffeine addict.

These old quarter acre sections do not age, regardless of any dwellings becoming archaic; the house may look like it should be superseded, but you can grow your own seeds here and get back to living organic. Within the soil there is hidden potential, primed for redemption and rediscovery, should you wish to cultivate a garden, which boasts of being bodaciously botanic.

Inside the home is a mix of three bedrooms, a potential makeshift bathroom which makes this place dynamic, and a coal burner which is an old dinosaur - you could say it is Jurassic. The kitchen is appointed but ill-equipped, for which I am unapologetic.

Enjoy the summer of recreational activities on the doorstep of not only the trout-infused Mataura river, but also the greater Southland area. Bring your cheese rolls and your marmite, the price is right for your very own slice of a possible future Southland heritage site.

This large expansive 1012m2 plot will not disappoint in providing a great opportunity with ample space to position your caravan, motor home, bus or even tiny home. Your plans may be for a fresh start or rejuvenated renovation, relocation, a grand subdivision for extra optimization; either way you will have available and valuable services to assist you on this flat stimulating section.
