"As Is, Where Is" - Final week!

View Sunday 1-1:45pm. Idyllic garden setting.
One of Brighton's iconic and historic homesteads has been tastefully renovated to an impeccable standard by the owner/builder whose family have enjoyed living here for several years. Tucked away on a private, rear section this one is a real hidden gem. In contrast to many homes of its era you will appreciate the sunny north-facing living with French doors opening to the deck and delightful garden setting - testament to the horticultural acumen of Capt. Alfred Owles, British Sea Captain, athlete, bandsman, former mayor of New Brighton in the late 1920's and original owner of this magnificent home.
Opportunities abroad have prompted the current owner's family to relinquish their labour of love and offer this stunning property to the market.
While the foundations have been compromised by the quakes and floor level variations still exceed the accepted guidelines, the owner has undertaken considerable work in both the subfloor and superstructure to ensure that this home is likely to still be standing in another 100 years.
With generous room sizes, four bedrooms and an office, two living rooms, a designer kitchen and modern bathrooms, double garage and on-site parking, this home combines the comfort and convenience of modern living with the character and ambience of yesteryear.
In short, this property redefines the notion of "as is, where is" - come see for yourself, but be prepared to fall in love. Property ID: #PD4930
