Overview

Appleby Villa - Renovated & Ready to Go

Sitting on a generous 475m² section (more or less) along Bluff Highway in Appleby, this beautifully renovated 1910s villa delivers the best of both worlds — classic character and a thoroughly modern interior. At approximately 160m² of floor area, there's genuine space to breathe here, and the recent renovation has taken care of all the big-ticket items so you can simply move in and enjoy it. The interior has been transformed with care — new kitchen, new bathroom, new carpet, rewiring, and a new wood burner that will keep the whole family warm through those Southland winters. The original character of the home has been preserved throughout, with high ceilings and the kind of solid, generous proportions that newer builds simply can't replicate. Inside the Home: - Three very spacious bedrooms with large aluminium windows letting in plenty of natural light - Generous open-plan living, dining, and kitchen area — a real heart-of-the-home feel - Stylish new kitchen with modern cabinetry and splashback - New bathroom with walk-in shower - New wood burner for cosy, efficient heating - Brand new rewiring throughout - New carpet throughout the main living areas and bedrooms - High stud ceilings with original character detailing - Wide hallway with charming original features - Large laundry room (over 12m²) — a genuine bonus space with real potential as a hobby room, home office, or even a fourth bedroom Outside: - 475m² section (more or less) - Brand new roof - All aluminium windows - Off-street parking - Established hedging to the highway boundary This is a property that's been done properly. The renovation touches every room, and the big structural and infrastructure items — roof, wiring, kitchen, bathroom — are all new. What you're left with is a character home that's genuinely ready to live in, without the usual surprises that come with a villa of this era. Whether you're a family looking for space and warmth, a buyer who loves the character of an older home without the project, or an investor seeking a well-renovated property with broad appeal, 38 Bluff Highway deserves a serious look.
