Selwyn Median PriceSelwyn Median Rent | Map | Street view | Nearby | Property Description: | This gracious permanent material home (424 sq m) in a mature colourful garden setting provides a unique opportunity for a discerning buyer. Situated in the Darfield township, it is close to all amenities. Living areas comprise a spacious formal lounge - of which a large open fire surrounded in Italian marble is a feature - an open-plan living/dining area off the kitchen and another family lounge. The kitchen functions well with a modern double wall oven and large gas hob. Beside the kitchen a room with hand basin and tub has been utilised as an office allowing easy conversion to the ultimate butler's pantry if desired. A sheltered and sunny private terrace with spa pool has access from both the formal lounge and main hallway and overlooks a grass tennis court. This beautiful property would be ideally suited as a large family home; alternatively it has been extended enabling the present owners to run a small family business. A new owner could consider establishing a concept of their choice such as boutique home stay accommodation. Downstairs there are seven bedrooms, three toilets, two shower rooms, and a small kitchenette area. Upstairs there is another cosy bedroom with huge walk-in wardrobe and office/retreat allowing access to an extensive roof space. A double internal access garage, adjacent to a large laundry with plenty of storage, completes the picture. Heating is by way of diesel central heating, electric under floor heating, a night-store and recessed wall heaters. A current building warrant of fitness (valid until July 2014), fire alarms and sprinkler system, and surveillance alarm are additional features which add value to this amazing property, situated up a sealed driveway well back from the road, offering privacy and shelter in a park-like setting. An Independent Registered Valuation supports asking price of $948,000 including GST. |
