Family Life Just Got Sweeter!

Striking family home in sought-after location. This substantial bungalow is a 1940's classic loved and enjoyed for more than 20 years by its present owners. Additions have been sympathetically blended with the existing home to include the benefits of modern living, yet scope still exists for the new owners to stamp their mark on it.
Occupying a private large section 1012m2 that borders Risingholme Park, its lovingly tended mature garden envelops the house providing an abundance of fruit and vegetables all year round. Boasting four generous double bedrooms with two cosy living rooms, a bathroom and separate toilet, the home provides flexibility to accommodate extended family, teenagers or guests. The warm and welcoming sunny rear extension provides a spacious open-plan kitchen, dining and living area with log burner, for the family to congregate and entertain. French doors open onto wide steps down to the lawn and lush garden beyond with views of gracious trees bordering the park boundary fence.
A concrete aggregate driveway, and recently built double garage with ample storage, sink bench and another toilet complete the appeal. Multiple choices for schools abound: zoned for Opawa Primary, Cashmere High, Hill View Christian and Middleton Grange Schools and Marian College. Walking distance to Rudolf Steiner, St Marks Primary, Seven Oaks and TKKM O Waitaha.
Owners have bought, a new project awaits, so seize this rare opportunity to move into an established and desirable neighbourhood. Property ID: #IM51522
