A home which defines "grandeur", offering a glimpse into the historic past of the elite within the Christchurch landscape. Showcasing Kauri flooring, large sash windows, marble fireplaces, original detailing, and an elegant, curved staircase, complete with wreathed handrail and cast-iron balusters which is a focal point of the entrance and believed to be one of three imported from England.
Originally built in 1879 for Bank of New Zealand managers, as you may expect no expense was spared and that was certainly the case when the property went through a complete overhaul and restoration several years ago. Rich in history, Roxburghe has been home to some key figures through the years including William Charters, Ellen Gebbie & The Jameson Family.
Carefully considered character is blended seamlessly with modern day engineering in this 1870's revival. A full house lift and modern foundation poured, should assure you that you are not only buying a piece of Christchurch history, but also quality craftsmanship.
Some key features
- Two freehold titles totaling 2,178m2 or 845m2 (garage) plus 1,333m2 (house)
- Four car garaging or 2 car plus gym
- 1 bedroom flat with bathroom, laundry, living/kitchen and bedroom
- Covered verandah and wrap around deck
- Fully relined with plywood for sound and bracing and then gib and plaster
- Fully insulated including floors, walls and ceiling
- Central heating throughout
- Private driveway complete with security gate and system
Whether you recognize this property from its position or from its cultural and historical significance within the Christchurch landscape, Roxburghe is, quite simply, exceptional. With the new home already purchased, this is for immediate sale on or before the scheduled date of auction.
