Overview

Private Villa with Character & City Views

Auction Location: LJ Hooker Dunedin office, 63 Musselburgh Rise Positioned down a private drive, away from the street frontage, you'll find this elevated Villa on a 678sqm freehold section. Exhibiting permanent materials, plenty of original character and an outlook across the city to the hills, this is such an attractive property - all with a level of seclusion that's rare this close to town. The wrap around veranda is the first thing you notice. It is a generous, sunny timber deck with turned posts and is accessed from both the lounge and the hallway. It is the best spot in the house for a morning coffee or an evening drink. Inside, the character features remain intact, with the stained glass transoms lighting the front door, and the entry hall runs under an arch with columns over polished timber floors, beneath ornate plaster ceilings. The lounge has tall sash windows, a gas fire set into a classic mantle and French doors that open through to the dining room. Fresh, neutral tones keep every room light and let the original detail stand out. A heat pump, along with ceiling and underfloor insulation, keeps the home comfortable through the Dunedin winter. The kitchen offers white cabinetry, a tiled splashback, an induction cooktop, a wall oven and a dishwasher, with the dining room adjoining and the French doors leading out to the rear courtyard and gardens. There are three double bedrooms. The front bedrooms have bay windows with leadlight panes and high decorative ceilings and the bathroom has been updated with subway tiles, a freestanding bath and a separate shower. Outside, the gravel courtyard at the rear is accessed straight off the dining room and catches the afternoon sun, making it an easy spot for outdoor dining. Landscaped gardens and established hedges frame the section, plus there is also off street parking for two cars. A separate laundry and storage space sits off the courtyard, and there is plenty of additional storage in the basement. A modernised Villa with character intact and views across the city to the harbour.....don't leave it too late to view this superb offering!
