FULL OF CHARACTER BUT WARM AS TOAST !!!

All the comfort and warmth of a modern family home can be found in this beautiful 1913 villa, while its original character and charm have been retained. North-facing living areas and great indoor-outdoor flow make the house naturally light, sunny and warm, while brand new double glazing throughout, underfloor and double ceiling insulation, new carpets and thermal curtains mean no drafts or condensation. There is also a full range of heating options (wood fire, heat pump and gas fire) so you’ll never be cold in winter!

All the hard work has been done – rewiring, repiling and full exterior paint including the roof. Original features include pressed tin ceilings, beautiful rimu doors and trim, and impressively proportioned rooms. The living spaces have been cleverly redesigned to create a home that is spacious yet cosy. The open-plan kitchen, modern bathroom and en suite in the huge master bedroom ensure contemporary family living at its best, with an option to use the fourth bedroom as a second lounge or family room.

The garden is fully fenced and very private with vegetable patch, plenty of fruit trees and a play house for the kids. The large deck – perfect for entertaining – is a real heat trap in summer. There is a twin single garage, a generous wood shed and very large workshop with power.

Nestled on the edge of the lovely Anzac Park, you have the river, playground, park and forest literally on your doorstep. It’s hard to believe this haven of peace and tranquility is so conveniently situated close to the heart of the city – a beautiful short stroll to the Farmers’ Market and handy to the shops. A rare opportunity to own a charming, modernised villa in a prized location, this very special home really is the best of both worlds!
