Cherished for over 30 years by the current owner, this elegant circa 1900 home is a rare treasure in an historic neighbourhood.

Seldom found and highly sought after the property is zoned Residential Single House Zone and will appeal to a large or extended family. It also includes a dedicated office, perfect for those working from home.

The stately villa has been sympathetically renovated over the years and retains many of the gorgeous features of the era from its high stud kauri board & batten ceilings down to its polished native timber floors. The archetypal layout remains with its wide central hallway defining the floor plan. Stained window glass and soft pastel wall tones imbue the interior with radiant colour and light throughout the warm and sunny solar powered home. Open plan living with an ornate fireplace shares space with the dining area while the separate sitting room could revert to the fourth bedroom if desired. The modern kitchen is spacious and well equipped with stainless steel appliances and robust matching benchtops. Alongside, French doors open wide to welcome guests onto a huge cobblestone patio shrouded in trees and privately oriented for alfresco entertaining. Both renovated bathrooms are designed in keeping with the character of the home with the family version a lovely space with tiled floor and garden vistas while the ensuite to the master is adjacent to a walk-in closet.

A spacious carport flows to a pergola-covered deck, offering versatility for a range of future uses.
