Retro Revival for Lifestyle Change Seekers

A move into residential care has prompted the sale of this much-loved and faithfully cared for property. Whether you are after your first home, downsizing or simply looking for a lifestyle change this one needs to be on your open homes list.

Beautifully maintained 1950's brick-and-tile bungalow with original retro character features. Testament to the current owners 30-year tenure, this really is one of those offerings that has stood the test of time.

Classic brick and tile construction and the extensive use of native timber trim, flooring and structural elements give the reassurance that these mid-century homes are renown for. Two generous bedrooms and two interconnecting living areas have been augmented by the addition of a verandah and sun-drenched conservatory in more recent years. It serves as a tranquil space where you can enjoy the garden views and indulge in a cup of tea or a good book. Upgrading includes double-glazing in the lounge and bedrooms, floor coverings, an updated bathroom with corner shower, and the inclusion of a detached double garage with workshop space for DIY projects or hobbies.

Minor earthquake repairs have been attended to as a managed repair under the Canterbury Home Repair Programme, and the driveway has been replaced. The site is well fenced, and with the street running along its northern boundary the home is bathed in sun throughout the day (when it is shining!).

Lonsdale St is long revered as a popular choice for house-hunters. It is close to the beach, Rawhiti Domain with its recreational offerings, river walks, and just a short-stroll to the hot pools and New Brighton commercial and retail precinct. New Brighton Catholic School and associated St Mary's church are across the road, and it is an easy commute to Shirley Boys and Avonside Girls High Schools. Will you be lucky enough to have your name recorded next on this property's title?
