Wow! Right in the middle of Thorndon Village with everything on your doorstep: shops, cafes, and restaurants, and just a short stroll to the city, Botanic Gardens, and the Northern Walkway. This two to three bedroom home is the top unit of two in a one-of-a-kind turn-of-the-century villa. Its position means maximum sun, gorgeous light, and charming views - of the village, characterful rooftops, and (on a clear Winter's day) the stunning snow-kissed Tararuas. Two large bedrooms - or one plus a spacious living room - and a third single bedroom, study, or home office. Open plan kitchen, dining and 'snug' (complete with Studio wood burner), backing on to beautiful gated, shared native garden and deck attracting kaka, tui, and kereru. Not your stereotypical apartment, this is a very appealing and convenient city haven.
