One of a Kind..."As Is Where Is"

The late John Huggins created something truly unique when he designed this distinctive house in the 1980s. On this small site almost adjacent to Hagley Park, his challenge was to fill the space with light and sun and provide dual access from two iconic Merivale streets. The result was then, and still is now, a remarkably clever stylish townhouse with soaring double height ceilings full of inspirational design features.
Our current owners purchased this 'as is where is' with the intention of full restoration but a change in circumstances means this is now an impossibility. During their tenure much of the structural integrity of the building has been reinstated with the crucial foundation process now completed. The property has been underpinned and levelled with just the pouring of the slab to finish.

This is an unusual situation of a partial repair to a notable house well worthy of full reinstatement. He who takes advantage will be a winner!
