Set on a generous 1012sqm quarter-acre section, this 217sqm character home showcases the timeless elegance of a bygone era. The current owners have undertaken an extensive room-by-room restoration after purchasing from a construction company who relevelled the home following the Canterbury earthquakes, breathing new life into this architectural gem while preserving its authentic charm. Original features have been lovingly retained inside, and the outside still has the decorative wrought iron work, and the stunning original veranda. Inside includes ornate plaster ceiling centrepieces, and functioning sash windows with retro fitted double glazing. Sophisticated enhancements include exquisite French chandeliers, a beautiful French kitchen flowing into an open-plan dining area, plus a formal lounge perfect for entertaining. Modern comfort is assured with comprehensive insulation, central heating via wood pallet-fired boiler with radiators throughout, along with both solar and wet-back hot water system. The four-bedroom, two-bathroom layout offers excellent family living, while the covered deck provides seamless indoor-outdoor entertaining. Additional features include a separate double garage and workshop, ideal for tradies or hobbyists. With just one room remaining to complete the internal restoration journey inside, this property presents an exceptional opportunity for those seeking a rewarding project. Whether you're planning to create your forever home or develop for resale, the potential here is clear. Being sold "as is," this represents outstanding value for buyers ready to add the finishing touches to what will undoubtedly become a stunning showpiece villa.
