Majestic Merivale Manor!

For the first time on the market in over twenty years this grand Heathcote Helmore home renovated better than its former glory, double glazed and rewired was the original homestead for the surrounding properties. Entry is down a private yet impeccable tree-lined driveway through automatic security gates. On first glimpse you will be captivated by the charm and glory of this stately character residence, proudly overlooking 1884sqm of park like grounds.
The central high stud entrance hall provides a gracious transition to the day room and is complimented by an attached purpose-built wine cellar. The separate formal lounge along the hall overlooks a full-sized tennis court. Attention to detail is uncompromised inside this gallery-like home. Hosting functions or gatherings is made easy with this substantial open plan entertainers kitchen complete with island bench and large oven, flowing to a dining area easily accommodating ten or more diners and a large open plan living room.
Two gas fires and a heat pump provide year-round warmth whilst improved insulation and smart wiring gives you the feeling as if you are living in a brand new home. The generous staircase takes you to five bedrooms and a chic family bathroom with stand-alone bath whilst the master bedroom is uber spacious and completed by a walk-in wardrobe and good sized en suite. There is a further guest powder room downstairs adding the final touches to ease the comfort of executive living.
Five sets of French doors encapsulate this home overlooking the in-ground heated swimming pool, full sized tennis court completed by outdoor lights and manicured grounds with inbuilt irrigation system. Cars are secure behind the private gates and housed by a stand alone double garage and portico plus additional off street parking.
In zone for some of the most sought-after public schools and within walking distance to exclusive private schools, your educational needs most definitely will be met. Homes such as this are rarely on the market offering families harmonious living right in the heart of one of Christchurch's most desirable suburbs. This majestic manor is sure to sell on or before auction day so don't delay and contact the LA today to view. Property ID: #PI62822
