To download all information please copy and paste the following link into your browser - https://www.propertyfiles.co.nz/property/1001650003 Having now committed to their next venture, our owners urgently seek a prompt sale for their gorgeous family home. A home of remarkable pedigree and presence, this landmark villa occupies one of central Christchurch's most coveted positions - just 100 metres from the expansive green of Hagley Park and approximately 100 metres from the iconic Victoria Street Clock Tower. Painstakingly restored from the ground up, this exceptional residence combines the elegance and craftsmanship of its heritage with the engineering, comfort and functionality expected of a modern family home. A complete structural renewal has included a new TC3 ring foundation, full repiling and re-line, new plumbing, drainage, wiring and roofing - providing confidence that this beautiful home is ready for another century of family life. Yet while the engineering is entirely modern, its soul remains wonderfully intact. Original ceiling roses, the grand staircase, skirtings and architraves have all been carefully retained, ensuring the villa's historic character remains central to the experience of the home. The floor plan has been thoughtfully reimagined for contemporary living. Formerly separated formal rooms have been brought together to create an expansive open-plan kitchen, living and dining space, while a generous separate lounge provides a quieter retreat and an elegant setting for entertaining. Four bedrooms, a dedicated study, two bathrooms and a powder room provide the space and flexibility for families to grow and evolve. Throughout, the level of finish reflects the care invested in the restoration, with solid American oak flooring, bespoke oak cabinetry, striking herringbone tiling, granite surfaces and quality AEG appliances. Comfort and technology have been seamlessly integrated without compromising the home's character. An Elan home theatre system, eco fireplace and radiators throughout complement full insulation to the walls, ceiling and underfloor, together with double glazing. Practicality is equally well considered, with a dedicated drying cupboard, extensive storage, lined roof space and secure off-street parking behind an electric gate. And then there is the location. Few Christchurch addresses offer this combination of heritage, convenience and access to the city's best amenities. Hagley Park is quite literally on the doorstep, while Victoria Street's cafés, restaurants and bars are only moments away. The city centre is readily accessible on foot, as are Christ's College and other leading private schools, making this an address of exceptional convenience for families. Zoned for Christchurch Boys' High School, Christchurch Girls' High School, Heaton Intermediate and Elmwood School, the location further strengthens the home's enduring appeal. Beautifully restored, meticulously engineered and exceptionally positioned, this is a rare opportunity to acquire a piece of Christchurch heritage that has been thoughtfully prepared for modern family life - and for generations still to come.
