Overview

Location, lifestyle and potential

A home with warmth, size, and soul - in a location that supports every chapter of life. Built in 1934, this character bungalow is a rare time capsule of craftsmanship and care. Held by the same family since 1958 and lovingly maintained throughout, it embodies the kind of heritage and heart that can’t be replicated. From the glass pendant lights and ornate ceiling roses to the intricate detailing of its era, every feature tells a story of timeless design and enduring pride. A true time capsule of its era, the home showcases original Wally Briggs Formica cabinetry - a hallmark of 1970s New Zealand design. A nostalgic nod to mid-century style and packed with potential, it offers the perfect foundation for those wanting to preserve heritage while reimagining the space for modern living. Inside, the home unfolds across four bedrooms with built-in robes, two bathrooms, and two separate living areas that offer flexibility for family life. The second living opens effortlessly to a covered deck - the perfect spot to unwind while overlooking the flat lawn and established cottage gardens. Beneath the home, a cellar adds a touch of nostalgia and practicality, while the exterior reveals vegetable beds, and a single garage. Comfort is well considered with ceiling and underfloor insulation, heat pumps, a night store heater, and an HRV system ensuring year-round ease. The Coloursteel roof (approximately 15 years old) and classic weatherboard cladding underscore the property’s solid bones and enduring appeal. Positioned just 500m from the Coastal Walkway, 1.6km from Ngāmotu Beach, and within easy reach of the CBD and local amenities - it’s a location that connects lifestyle, convenience, and character in one effortless address. Whether you’re a family searching for space with soul or a visionary ready to modernise and add value, this is a home that offers something truly special - a chance to write the next chapter in a story already rich with history.
