Character, Charm and Opportunity

If this gracious old lady could talk, what tales she would tell! Where in the World would you find a substantial and well maintained character home, on over 1200m2, from where you can walk to the central city in less than 20 minutes.
Her guardians of the last 32 years have loved not only the wonderful lifestyle the property has afforded them whilst bringing up their family, but specifically the peaceful ambience of the home and use of the 1292m2 gardens full of fruit trees and a plentiful vege garden, as well as a superb oversized triple car garage.
From the moment of entering the magnificent double portico entrance, with stunning Australian hardwood flooring in the entrance, Rimu paneling and flooring throughout, you're immediately appreciative of the many collected memories having been created in its midst. Being well insulated under the floor and up in the roof, it is cosy and comfortable for year round living.
Two of the three bedrooms have decorative fireplaces, and all bedrooms are huge doubles. The master bedroom has a superb walk in robe with hidden storage up top, and an ensuited toilet to compliment the main bathroom further down the hallway. For gatherings with friends and family, there is a north facing, paneled sitting room with a cosy gas fire.
There 's another focus of attention for new ownership here. DEVELOPERS will be chasing the opportunity to create a new future for the land! Set on Residential MEDIUM DENSITY land with legal access from Bishop Street, it's the perfect land banking site for future development in a proven location for urban living on the city fringe.
