Overview

Timeless Character, Contemporary Ease

Drawing on the classic charm of yesteryear, with a colonial-style veranda overlooking mature gardens and beautiful timber details inside, this very special home is designed for a modern way of life. Light streams in, indoor spaces flow seamlessly to the outdoors, and interconnected spaces make living easy. Nestled well back from the road on 848 sqm in a highly desirable street, it's zoned for top schools and incredibly convenient, with Mona Vale and Hagley Park within walking distance. A timber-panelled entrance hall leads through French doors to the main living area. The open-plan family and dining zone is bright, with a pitched glass roof that brings in northern sun and doors to outdoor living on two sides. There's a sheltered courtyard for morning coffee, and an entertaining terrace at the rear with drop-down blinds that turns into a Provence-inspired outdoor room after dark. The kitchen has timber cabinetry with plenty of storage. A separate formal lounge has a bay window and a built-in library. The main bedroom is a private retreat, with its own study, a walk-in robe and a fully tiled ensuite with a bath, and French doors that open onto the veranda. Two more double bedrooms share the family bathroom, and a separate laundry and a double garage finish the home. The northwest-facing grounds are private and framed by mature specimen trees, so it's easy to forget the CBD is only five minutes away by car, or a pleasant cycle through Hagley Park. The home is zoned for Fendalton School, Heaton Intermediate, Cobham Intermediate, Burnside High, Christchurch Boys' High and Christchurch Girls' High, and Merivale and the airport are close by.
