A generational opportunity that has been held by the same family for over 34 years, this timeless character family home is now ready for a new family to create treasured memories.
Surrounded by lush mature gardens and lawns, this private haven is tucked away down a long driveway in the central Avenues.
Originally built in the 1920s and retains much of the charm of its era, the property sits on a full 1,091sqm (more or less) section with plenty of space to add a pool (if desired).
This solidly constructed home is framed by double arches with a grand front porch. Walk through the double lead light entrance doors into a spacious foyer with wide hallways and original timber floors and high stud beamed ceilings - just to mention of few of the many character features.
An updated skylit kitchen with family dining flows through French doors to gorgeous paved patio and generous backyard that's sheltered by a glorious old elm and raised gardens.
Head down the hallway to a second cosy wood paneled lounge with formal dining that is warmed by an open fire, four large bedrooms plus another office space all serviced by two moderised family bathrooms.
Let's not forget the free-standing double garage, spacious laundry/utility and the enormous rumpus room downstairs complete with extra storage and bathroom - providing options to work from home or perhaps creating additional accommodation for family, friends or a teenagers hangout.
For those that love the warmth and beauty of character homes this is sure to tick all the boxes. It is a rare opportunity in Tauranga Avenues, within walking distance to Iconic Memorial Park, excellent schools (including St Marys and Tauranga Boys College), cafes and the amenities of the CBD.
