FINAL WEEK! auction - thursday 17th august

Showcasing a seamless transition from traditional to contemporary, this exquisite character home offers modern elegance whilst retaining many of its classic features. Impressively renovated, this 1920's large family home is positioned in this sought after street.

Extensively renovated including rewiring, PVC double glazing and insulation in the floor and ceiling, making it an exemplary home for family living. Sun-drenched indoor and outdoor living areas will provide year-round enjoyment of the home in addition to three heat pumps and new carpet throughout.

The open-plan dining, complemented by a separate living area, provides ample space for entertaining and enjoys an abundance of light with large picture windows, a light neutral palette offset by rimu carpentry and floor to ceiling patio doors, which spill out onto ex-large sunny, inviting private deck and patio - fantastic for BBQ's and entertaining friends and family, or just watching the kids play in the large backyard.

The kitchen makes a statement with trendy finishes while holding the character charm that the home exudes. Generous and well designed, the kitchen offers expansive bench space, quality appliances and a sizeable pantry. You will immediately fall in love with the classic elements of this home, featuring glass-stained windows, high stud ceilings and original brass light switches that add a touch of nostalgia.

All four double bedrooms are generously sized, light-filled, sharing two modern family bathrooms.

Nestled on beautifully landscaped grounds, consisting of 969sqm of land with a double garage, expansive off-street parking with room for a boat or trailer and an electric gate for peace of mind, this home maximises the space available, with the consideration for the practicalities of modern living. Close to shops, schools and public transport, this home offers unmatched convenience in a highly sought-after suburb.

This property presents a seamless combination of old-world charm and modern elements, making it a truly exceptional home. Don't miss the chance to own this character home with all the comforts of contemporary living.
