Renovate or Redevelop "As Is Where Is - Insured"

Occupying an expansive dual access site in a picturesque locale only strides from Riccarton Bush lies this ageless character home that is rich with potential.

The idyllic 1055sqm parcel of land will be a major drawcard for families seeking space in this favoured neighbourhood. Plans are also available for visionary buyers wanting to relocate the home closer to the garage, which would present the opportunity for construction on the remaining land. The sheer size of the site, its large road frontage and the presence of two entrances will also undoubtedly attract developers pursuing a section that can effortlessly hold two townhouses in this perennially desirable area.

Beautifully established trees encompass the property to deliver superb privacy, with the home's timeless architecture only adding to the appeal. The home is "As Is Where Is" but fully insured for convenience and peace of mind, and while parts of the home are tastefully decorated, other areas are visibly in need of cosmetic enhancement. The floor plan is generously scaled, playing host to two spacious living areas as well as a kitchen and dining zone that opens outdoors to a delightful courtyard. Four bedrooms are assisted by two bathrooms, one of which is incomplete.

A thoughtfully designed double garage was introduced to the property in 2014 and has been styled according to the home's era. Not only does it provide ample vehicle storage, but it contains a versatile space ideally suited as a games area or teenage retreat, which is an additional bonus.

Located only a few hundred metres from the Saturday farmers' market and Riccarton House, it's also in-zone for CBHS and CGHS.

The vendors are motivated to achieve a sale - their children have grown and flown, making this family home surplus to requirements. Contact me for more information.
