1/4 Acre to Spread your Wings

Steeped in history and nestled in a peaceful tree-lined setting, this often-admired character home was originally constructed for the senior Air Force officers in 1938 and is truly one of a kind, providing excellent value for money on its enormous section.
Traditional charm is showcased by the well-proportioned rooms and generous 2.65m ceiling height while rimu panelling has been beautifully preserved and contributes timeless appeal.
Various living zones include an attic conversion which could host a fourth bedroom or teenage retreat depending on your circumstance while the presence of a study is another bonus of the floor plan. An outdoor entertaining space naturally flows from the dining area with the expansive 1042m2 section enjoying complete privacy courtesy of established trees that border the sprawling lawn.
Extensive storage options are offered both inside and out which ensures you have no shortage of space. Recent wall insulation is complemented by a heat pump and pellet fire while the home's ideal north-facing orientation ensures it soaks up all-day sun.
Wigram is an area that has flourished over recent years with the eateries and amenities in Wigram Skies within a three-minute drive of your door while early learning centres, new primary school (opening early 2019), and local playgrounds are also within easy reach which will appeal to growing families. You're also located less than 10 minutes' drive from various retail offerings ranging from The Hub and Bush Inn through to Westfield Riccarton and the CBD, and whether you choose to travel by bus or car, easy access to the motorways and public transport routes provide utter convenience.
Many properties aren't fortunate enough to have such a colourful history, and buyers are encouraged to act quickly as our owners are shifting to the seaside.
