Nestled on the serene Chalmers Avenue, Hampstead, Ashburton, this charming residential dwelling boasts 3 spacious bedrooms, a modern bathroom, and a single carpark. Constructed in 1910 with roughcast walls and an iron roof in good condition, this freehold property sits on a levelled contour with a floor area of 137sqm and a land area of 961sqm. The property has seen a significant Capital Value (CV) increase of 34%, from $265,000 in 2018 to $355,000 as of 2021. The HouGarden AVM estimates the property's value at $347,500, while the latest sale fetched $455,000 in 2022, a stark contrast to the $171,500 sale in 2010.
With a touch of modernity blending into its vintage charm, the house features high ceilings, a compliant logburner, and a heat pump for comfort. The large garage, established fruit trees, and fenced gardens add to the appeal. This healthy home is well-insulated and has undergone wiring and roof replacements. It's located in a prime school zone, with the likes of Villa Maria College (Decile 9) and St Thomas of Canterbury College (Decile 8) nearby, among others.
Conveniently positioned, the property is a short stroll from the Netherby shops, preschools, intermediate and primary schools, and the central township of Ashburton. Notably, Chalmers Avenue is proposed to be part of the new bridge alternate route, which may lead to increased traffic flow.
