Overview

Sold under the hammer

Auction (unless sold prior) from 12pm, Thu 26 Mar 2026 3 Deans Avenue, Chch Move in, restore and enjoy, or redevelop. Occupying a standout corner section, this 1910s character villa with beautiful original features on 867sqm (approximately) is an opportunity waiting to be taken. It's warm, character and a fabulous sunny location in all the zones, it's a home ready to be lived in and loved. Medium-density zoning, generous accessible flat land on a northwest corner site, place the site firmly in development territory. Beyond the classic frontage, there are three generous double bedrooms and two bathrooms off a wide villa hallway, with the modern family bathroom enhanced by a sunken bath and a separate shower. The gracious living room with grand bay window and character fireplace opens out onto the sunny return veranda from where you can relax and enjoy the evening sun. The kitchen-dining, a separate laundry and ample storage, make for easy daily living. A decorative entranceway arch and cornices, ceiling roses, leadlights, period fireplaces and original timber floors ooze warmth and character. Well-fenced grounds with a good-sized double garage offer a range of outdoor options and privacy, with established trees, roses and a northwest aspect and space to play and explore. There is room to reimagine and create your own nooks and crannies, or simply appreciate the setting as it stands. With Meshino Cafe, Malvern Park and Rugby Park within a stone's throw, and Merivale village within strolling reach, the address is completed by zoning for St Albans School, Heaton Intermediate, Christchurch Boys' and Christchurch Girls' High Schools, securing its appeal to families who value location and education as much as those eyeing the site for its longer-term.
