From the time you step onto the sun-soaked front porch and walk through this home you will discover unique and wonderful features. The central hallway showcases polished Rimu floors, the living areas display handmade polished brass light fittings, and the front bedroom has the original light fitting enhanced with hand blown Hokitika glass shades. This home permeates an ambiance of calmness within a heritage feeling.

The current curators of the property discovered this unloved gem 40 years ago. They have restored it with style and integrity and meticulously maintained the true character of this villa. Many prospective home buyers look for that "feeling" whilst searching for their new home; this home has that 'feeling' throughout.

Some key features:
- Functional floorplan
- Central living room with a feature fireplace and consented log burner
- Second living/dining room, open to a modern kitchen
- Entertainer's deck surrounded by four decades of thoughtful plantings
- Double garage and separate consented studio, offering a home office or teenage retreat
- Freehold parcel consisting of 658 square metres, RSDT zoned land

Located only a stroll from popular neighbourhood amenities, including Meshinos Café, Malvern and Abberley Parks and minutes from our City Centre and the Merivale precinct. It offers the all-important zoning for excellent schools, including Elmwood Primary, Heaton Intermediate, Boys' and Girls' High and several private schools nearby. It is abundantly clear why this is such a highly desirable location.

Having purchased their new home, the owners are offering this property to the wider market for the first time in nearly 40 years. Clear instructions have been made - 'it is time to hand over this special home to the next generation'.

If this is something that is of interest to you, get in touch today to arrange a viewing or visit during one of the scheduled open homes.
