Overview

The Yellow Door - and Old World Charm!

Step into a storybook setting of this enchanting 1880's cottage, where timeless character meets the ease of modern living. The cottage has been thoughtfully renovated, re-roofed and re-piled, while preserving the soul of its era. Inside, warm wooden floors, sash windows, a stunning stained glass window, filtering soft light, and the comforting charm of an original agar fireplace, paired with a freestanding stove - create a home that feels both nostalgic and inviting. A log burner in the living room keeps the home toasty in winter. Verandas at the front and rear, complete with original fretwork, invite you outdoors - perfect for savouring a morning coffee or unwinding with an evening wine in the sun. The home offers three bedrooms, with one currently styled as a formal dining room with French doors leading to the garden - providing flexibility for families or entertainers alike. Outside, a delightful and very private cottage garden is framed by established hedges and features fruit trees, a grapevine, specimen plantings, and a generous lawn - ideal for play, entertaining, or simply enjoying the peaceful surroundings. A single garage and lean-to shed complete the package of this charming retreat. Whether you're seeking character, comfort, or a touch of romance -'The Yellow Door' welcomes you home to a life worth living. Located so close to Blenheim CBD, schools and NMIT, in a pretty neighbourhood. Call us for a private viewing appointment or visit one of our open homes. https://rwblenheim.co.nz
