Welcome to 5 James Street, where timeless charm meets modern comfort in this beautifully maintained three-bedroom character home. Nestled in a prime central Rotorua location, this classic timber weatherboard beauty is full of original features that make it truly special – from high stud ceilings to authentic detailing that adds warmth and personality throughout.
The heart of the home is a modern yet homely kitchen which has been thoughtfully updated – practical, stylish, and inviting – perfect for everything from weekday dinners to weekend baking. The adjoining living room is filled with light and character, from the high stud ceiling with beams to the lead light window. It is charming and cosy with plenty enough space for modern furniture and living.
There are three bedrooms: a generous double, a comfortable single (could be larger with the large wardrobe removed - see floor plan), and a versatile double.
Enjoy outdoor living with a covered deck, ideal for entertaining or simply relaxing with a coffee in hand. The gardens are established yet easy-care, with just enough lawn to enjoy – without the weekend workload.
Need extra space? The garage includes a hobby room and a second bathroom – perfect for a creative studio, guest space, or work from home office. This is where you will also find the laundry.
