Beautifully reimagined by its owners, this early 1900s character villa in sought-after Spencerville is a home where timeless charm meets modern-day comfort. Extra-high ceilings, a wonderful sense of openness and generous proportions create an inviting atmosphere throughout, offering a beautifully considered setting for family living, entertaining and enjoying the lifestyle this special location offers.
Set back from the road, a beautiful veranda creates a welcoming first impression, leading into an entrance hall and a home that has been thoughtfully transformed for contemporary living. Three generous double bedrooms provide excellent accommodation, with two positioned at the front of the home to enjoy leafy garden and green paddock outlooks. The master is particularly appealing, complete with a freestanding wardrobe, ensuite and a charming stained glass bay window framing the outlook. The second front bedroom also enjoys a lovely outlook, while the third double offers generous wardrobe space. A modern family bathroom completes the accommodation.
At the rear, the home opens into generous open-plan living spaces, where the high ceilings and sense of space enhance the relaxed connection between the modern kitchen, dining and living areas. These spaces flow effortlessly to the outdoor entertaining deck and expansive rear garden, creating an easy rhythm between indoor and outdoor living. A separate laundry and additional storage area add everyday practicality, while the outdoor setting provides plenty of room for children to play, pets to roam and friends to gather. Beyond the main deck, a separate patio tucked towards the rear of the garden creates another spot to settle in and make the most of those long summer evenings.
The renovation has been comprehensive, bringing the home into the present with modern bathrooms, a contemporary kitchen, full insulation, a heat pump and wood burner for year-round comfort. Add plenty of off-street parking, a separate garage and a gated entrance and the practicalities of everyday living are well catered for.
Location is another compelling part of the story. With Bottle Lake Forest and the beach close by, the growing amenities of Marshland within easy reach, convenient access to Christchurch's northern suburbs and straightforward connections to the city, this is a location that balances space, recreation and convenience with ease.
Having called this property home for the past 11 years, our owners have lovingly shaped it to suit their growing family. With their next project now underway, the time has come for another owner to make it their own.
Character at heart, contemporary by design and wonderfully open in feel, this is a home ready for its next chapter.
