Set on a beautifully established and landscaped 10,828sqm section, this unique lifestyle property is accessed via a long sweeping driveway, creating a sense of arrival as you approach the home, double garage, and additional outbuildings.
Originally constructed in the 1910s, this substantial residence offers generous living spaces and retains the timeless charm and character of its era. Rich in history and personality, the home showcases many original features, including decorative plaster ceilings sourced from the historic Frankton Town Hall, elegant bay windows, and a distinctive Fijian Kauri bathroom. While comfortably liveable as is, there is also an exciting opportunity for new owners to add their own touches and further enhance this remarkable home.
Lovingly held by the current owners for many years, the property has been a treasured family home. However, with the owners now looking to downsize, they have made the difficult decision to pass this special property on to its next custodians.
The property comprises two dwellings positioned side by side, offering a total of 6 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, providing outstanding flexibility for a range of uses. Whether as a primary residence, multi-generational living, or combined with income potential through short-term accommodation such as AirBnB, this setup offers exceptional versatility.
Designed for family living and entertaining, the home offers spacious and well-proportioned rooms throughout. The traditional country-style kitchen, complete with a coal range, is complemented by a separate formal dining room featuring French doors that open outdoors. These inviting spaces provide the perfect setting for family gatherings, entertaining guests, or simply relaxing while enjoying the peaceful surroundings and Waikato sunshine.
Located in the highly sought-after Matangi area, this exceptional property offers the best of both worlds - a private and tranquil lifestyle with excellent convenience. Hamilton Airport, Hamilton Gardens and Cambridge are all only a short drive away.
Character homes of this calibre, set on such a substantial parcel of land, are rarely offered to the market. Adding further appeal, a selection of antiques and collectables may also be available for negotiation as part of the sale.
With the owners now committed to downsizing and highly motivated to sell, this presents a rare opportunity for buyers seeking space, history, character, and lifestyle.
