Overview

Big on Space and Brilliantly Placed

Download the property info pack at www.agentsend.com/TOMES (copy and paste the link into your browser) Fresh to the market for the first time in 26 years, this character bungalow returns with 1920s detail in its fabric and modern comfort in its favour, all just minutes from Merivale and Northlands. The 776sqm section gives generous ground to a two-storey weatherboard design, where exposed timber panelling, feature lead lights and bay windows are balanced by double glazing and a distinctly modern open-plan living area, ensuring classic craftsmanship is experienced on contemporary terms. Family life gains considerably more capacity across three living spaces, led by the centrepiece kitchen, lounge and dining room, where a walk-in pantry gives storage a far greater footprint, while two additional lounges give every age, stage and occasion the freedom to find their own space. Extending directly from the open-plan zone, the large skylit portico brings shelter without surrendering sunlight, adding a substantial outdoor dimension for year-round entertaining, with the north-facing, sunny and sheltered position making this an ideal space to enjoy throughout the day. The upper level prioritises privacy, dedicating the entire floor to four bedrooms and two bathrooms, with the master gaining a walk-in robe and an en-suite of its own. The supporting spaces are equally well-suited to a full household, with three toilets and a separate laundry handling the practical workload, while a log fire and heat pumps take complementary approaches to comfort. The grounds keep outdoor space in generous supply, with a large rear garden joined by a detached garage with a studio that can turn its hand to hobbies or storage. The neighbourhood takes much of the mileage out of family life, with Paparoa Street School only a few doors down and an easy walk reaching both the recreation of Rutland Reserve and coffee at Meshino Cafe. Education extends even further, with Heaton Intermediate zoning and St Andrew's College close to home, while also exceptionally well placed for access to Christchurch's other leading private schools and Catholic colleges. Merivale and Northlands bring everyday essentials, shopping and dining within minutes, placing location firmly among the finest attributes of a home built around family life.
