14 Desmond Street, Fendalton, Canterbury Blue-Chip Character

1,012 sqm in an absolutely prime location, nestled in one of the city's most sought-after streets and just a stone's throw from Hagley Park and the city beyond, sets the tone for an unforgettable property here at 14 Desmond Street. The charm of the original 1920s home has been carefully updated with modern fixtures and finishes to create a stunning residence befitting an exceptional address. Diesel radiator heating and a mix of double and triple glazing ensures every comfort, while the addition of a large outdoor room in the private rear garden adds all kinds of options for family living, entertaining, hobbies or even working from home. The rear of the home has been cleverly opened-up to create an expanse of open-plan living with a distinctly modern feel. Stacking sliders push back to dissolve any divide between indoors and out - perfect for those long summer days and allowing seamless flow to an expanse of decking, lawn and the outdoor room, all surrounded by established greenery for low-maintenance privacy. Back inside, the casual sitting and dining areas are overlooked by a spectacular kitchen with Bosch appliances and a fully equipped scullery including a dishwasher, beer/wine fridge and divine leafy views to make meal prep a pleasure. A separate formal lounge boasts an Escea gas fire, while an in-ceiling surround sound system flows through the living spaces. The upstairs master bedroom is beautifully appointed with a WIR and tiled en suite bathroom, and three more bedrooms plus office share a family bathroom with separate bath and shower. A laundry, guest powder room and separate double garage complete a spectacular home, all secured from the street with electric gates.

Zoned for top schools, including Elmwood School, Heaton Intermediate, Boys' High, Girls' High and Burnside High, and with a choice of private options nearby, it is clear to see the appeal of this location for growing families. Proximity to Merivale Mall (1.9 km) and the central city (1.3 km) ensures the ultimate in convenience from weekday to weekend - a truly blue-chip lifestyle in the heart of Christchurch. Properties of this calibre are all too rare. Don't miss this opportunity.
