What's around 114B Memorial Avenue

Don Donnithorne Classic Lives On!

* To download the property files, please copy and paste this link into your web browser - https://www.propertyfiles.co.nz/property/CR499487 This timeless brick and cedar home designed by the late and great, Don Donnithorne, Architect, has undergone an entire rejuvenation in recent months resulting in a traditional but now fully contemporary home. These building materials have always been an appealing combination, not just visually, but as much for their enduring dependability. Buyers can trust this construction. Situated on a freehold title of 439sqm, the property is set well back in a rear position both private and secluded. Already established landscaping has been enhanced with smart, new fencing and driveway. Planting around the property is lush and stylish with two rows of thick hedging making a striking impression in the sheltered, north-west facing courtyard. Inside there is much to admire, testimony of the quality of the renovation. New cedar joinery doors and bifold windows, are all double glazed. Wide oak flooring, and elegant white shutters at bedroom windows, offset a fabulous white kitchen with an island bench taking centre stage! All three bedrooms are spacious, and the master could be either up or down. The choice is yours. Location is enticingly convenient with so much close-at-hand. If education is a priority, then Burnside Primary is a three-minute walk, BHS eight minutes and University fifteen. The property is equidistance between Fendalton and Fendalton North Malls, both with great supermarkets and café choices. Cycling or Bussing around the city from here is simple and effortless. The international airport and the city centre are less that 15 minutes drive each. Our Seller has made a move to Central Otago and has carefully prepared the house for inevitable sale to another. Easily maintained with minimal upkeep makes this a great option for retirement, however this is a home for those at all ages and stages. We urge your inspection.

Exceptional care, communication and knowledge

We returned to Jenny as buyers after a previous exceptional experience in 2017, and I would never consider anyone else. We were likely Jenny's most frustrating clients so far this year, we started with a clear brief, and then dragged her round many properties completely outside that brief. At all times, she was patient, helpful and amazing. We absolutely value the input Jenny provided at all stages in the buying process, including advice about the market, advice on specific homes, a wealth of experience, and contacts to assist with various things as needed. At all times Jenny was available to chat and help us work through our decision-making process, with honest and practical advice. We genuinely felt like Jenny was trying to achieve the best outcome for us, and she never once made us feel like we were taking too much of her time / taking too long / messing round looking at properties which were obviously not going to be right. Jenny was easy to talk to, we trust her 100%, and with her caring but honest approach, it actually felt like we had a knowledgeable family member helping us. After the benefit of all Jenny's care and knowledge during the house-hunting process, her experience and knowledge paid further dividends in the auction room, and we secured a house we are very happy with. With absolutely no hesitation, I highly recommend Jenny to any buyer,

A Terrific Real Estate Agent

Alison, and her terrific team, were great from the beginning through to the end. Her extensive experience was obvious: excellent communicator, always honest and realistic with a great knowledge of the market. Alison was recommended to us and we couldn't be happier with a great sale result in a market which was hard to read. Highly recommended.
