THE FLUFF:
The moving truck pulls away just as the first flowers of spring dance across the driveway. You stand on the front step, keys in hand, toddler on your hip, and a flutter of disbelief in your chest as you lock eyes with your partner. This is your home now, and it is perfect.
Stepping inside, you are greeted by sunlight streaming into the freshly painted bungalow. The living room welcomes you with light-filled windows, and the space echoes with the excited footsteps of your toddler racing through the house, discovering every corner.
As you enter the modern kitchen, you run your hand over the fluted feature tiles. Brass tapware catches the light, and you imagine birthday cakes cooling on the benchtop, weeknight dinners coming together in a blur of laughter. Beyond, the open-plan dining and lounge spills onto the new timber deck, and your breath catches as your mind slips into images of long summer evening bathing in the last of the afternoon sun with drink in hand.
The three double bedrooms offer possibilities. A nursery. A home office. A guest room for the grandparents. You love how each is freshly painted, with built-in wardrobes.
You wander out into the newly landscaped garden, where the just-laid lawn is already dotted with tiny footprints. Your toddler plays under the budding Japanese maple, and you smile. It is quiet here. Safe. The kind of street where she could learn to ride a bike, where neighbours wave, where life slows just a little. But you love how St Alban's is one of Christchurch's hottest suburbs, and the buzz of the city is only a stone's throw away.
As the afternoon sun turns the backyard golden, you sigh; it already feels like home.
