Nestled in the serene Scarborough, Christchurch, this 1970's residential gem at 1/35 Scarborough Road offers a captivating blend of nostalgia and potential. The late icons of the Christchurch Cinema industry, Lang and Maureen Masters, called this 3-bedroom, 1-carpark home with an iron roof and mixed-material walls their own since 1962. The property, with a floor area of 253 square meters, is under Cross-Lease ownership and boasts an average wall and roof condition on a steep rise contour. The government's capital value has seen a 52.31% increase from $1,300,000 in 2019 to $1,980,000 in 2022, while the HouGarden AVM estimates it at $1,324,500. This estate, a 'labour of love', features a private 18-seat movie theatre and a small inground pool with views stretching from Sumner beach to the city and mountains beyond.
Scarborough's allure is further enhanced by its educational institutions. The Middleton Grange School, Sumner School, and Marian College, all with high decile ratings, form part of the desirable school zone. This property not only offers a unique living experience but also an affordable entry into a community that is both vibrant and welcoming, a short stroll down to the thriving Sumner Village.
With the sun-soaked aspect and ever-changing vistas, this property is not just a home; it's a piece of history and a promise of a bright future.
