A Hidden Gem - No Longer!

'Length of tenure speaks volumes' about a home and its location; so, after 28 years of ownership and with a move to Auckland imminent, this much-loved home must be sold! Opportunities to purchase in this pocket of Ilam come to the market far too infrequently, especially when they feature the brilliance of architect Don Cowey. Situated on a rear section, completely private and serene, this spacious four-bedroom family house exudes a warm ambience, as well as dateless character seldom found in today's newer homes. Interconnecting living spaces allow for an array of entertaining options and orientation to the sun is perfect. The home is splendidly modernistic, its sculptural lines emphatically anchoring it to the landscape and proving as enduring as the day it was built. Whilst the home is in grand order, opportunity exists for modernisation which would only enhance what is a classic & timeless design. Throw in TC1 land, 4 Car garaging plus close proximity to Canterbury University, the Teachers College and parks; it just keeps getting better. This is a home that demands inspection and is sure to stack up as one of the best buys around, so if you're looking for great value for money and a property that offers a captivating lifestyle - then call today to avoid disappointment as the owners will be selling on or before Auction day!
