If the walls could talk, what stories they would tell? Built in 1921 as the original schoolmaster's house, this three-bedroom villa, filled with a charm and feel of yesteryear, is a well-known icon and a rare find.
Set on 4046m2, the private and peaceful property enjoys stunning expansive views of the surrounding Te Miro hills. The current owners have landscaped the grounds to create the perfect villa entrance with a formal front garden incorporating box hedging, feature plantings, cute steps and a driveway circle. The private rear large entertainer's lawn, framed by native gardens, is the perfect place to enjoy sensational sunsets while sipping your evening gin.
As you step into the home, the high eleven-foot stud and wide central hall provide a sense of space and character. The home oozes with period features ready to be enhanced, including native timber floorboards, sash windows and decorative paneled ceilings. The living areas, consisting of a kitchen/dining and separate lounge are positioned at the rear of the home giving privacy and great outlook. The mesmerising views from the kitchen windows are a must-see, there is potential to open up the rear of the house to make the most of the views to the rolling hills and sunsets.
Three spacious bedrooms, two with built-in cupboards, bathroom with separate toilet and laundry complete the house. Heating includes a heat pump with HRV and wall heater. Included in the grounds are a separate single garage and a rear fenced paddock.
Handy to Cambridge and the Waikato expressway, this remarkable property is located in the village of Te Miro - a great community with the school minutes away, bush walking tracks and the popular Te Miro mountain-bike park nearby. This property is perfect for families.
At 100 years old, the bones are still strong - live in as is or enhance her beauty further!
