This beautiful character home has been thoughtfully modernised to create a perfect fit for contemporary living - with open-plan living and great indoor-outdoor flow - while retaining its character and charm. The 637 sqm grounds are landscaped to maximise your enjoyment of the site - and there are no lawns to mow! Fully fenced from the street and nestled in a sought-after neighbourhood, you're strolling distance to cafés and parks, with Merivale and Northlands a short drive and superb school zoning.
A walled front garden is an enchanting entrance and, inside, a high stud and generous glazing lends a light, airy feel. Living spaces are generous, with open-plan casual living flowing along the western aspect - from dining at one end to casual sitting at the other and, in between, a kitchen with timber floor. Practical and well-appointed, with a wall oven, lots of storage and an island counter, this is a great workspace, and a breakfast bar and adjacent window seat ensures plenty of space for family and friends to gather. Alongside is a separate lounge, providing great options for entertaining. Indoor-outdoor flow is easy, with French doors to a choice of al fresco living, including a northwest-facing veranda and a private, paved entertaining area to the rear. The master bedroom includes garden access and an en suite, while three more bedrooms and an office share a family bathroom. A detached double garage is a welcome feature and the driveway provides additional parking secured behind gates.
Zoned for Waimairi School, Heaton Intermediate, Papanui High, Boys' High and Girls' High, with St Andrew's College, Merivale Mall and St George's Hospital nearby, it's easy to understand the popularity of this location. Contact the agent without delay to make this dream your own.
