Midcentury Modern Masterpiece - 4bedroom Home in Whanganui

An amazing house! We enjoyed looking through the carefully curated book collection. The hosts were very helpful.

Beautifully maintained and true to its original. It was clean warm and comfortable. We enjoyed browsing the collection of architecture and design books. Hannah made the process easy.

This is a fantastic home, it is a well preserved, architecturally designed in the early 1960s. The eight 70 -80 year olds staying were delighted to enjoy the period furniture, we loved the round dining table, the Swedish furniture and the open fire. A great 3 days stay in Whanganui.

When I drove up the driveway I couldn’t believe how beautiful the home is! I love mid-century modern architecture, and to me this is like staying in the very best kind of historic home. The place is pretty faithful to its original state, with only minor changes (like a more modern oven plus a dishwasher). Check-in was easy, wifi was good, and the hosts were easy to deal with.

The house accommodated our group of 6 well in June. The double bedrooms were comfy and the electric blankets appreciated. We did not cook at the house, but the kitchen seemed well equipped. The woodburner in the hallway warmed the living areas on the first floor, but we kept the bedroom doors shut, where we used electric heaters. The couple who stayed downstairs found it cold at this time of year. The house is a few kms from town, so we chose to drive. It was very near Virginia Lake and that was beautiful. Overall a great stay in this architecturally fascinating house. We suggest putting a sign on the lounge fireplace as it is not in use.

We had a fantastic stay at this unique mid-century home — full of character, beautifully styled, and incredibly comfortable. It was a truly memorable and relaxing experience.

Seamless stay and a nice venue.

Classic house, we loved the mid century touches, well equipped with plenty of spaces for a big family.
