Positioned above the trees, with gardens unfolding below and town just minutes away, this much-loved 1950s weatherboard home feels warm and welcoming from the moment you arrive. Held in the same ownership for 20 years, the home has been transformed into a modern three-bedroom residence plus an additional downstairs space currently used as part of a home and income setup, with two kitchens and two bathrooms, spread over two levels.

Set on a large, private section, the home is complemented by a well-established and much-loved garden. A wood-fired sauna adds a relaxed lifestyle element. The popular Hatea Loop walk in the Town Basin, along with other nearby nature walks, are just steps away. The Hundertwasser Art Centre, with its golden cupola, greets you as you drive down Vale Road.

Living across two levels provides flexibility for extended family or a genuine home and income option. Homes in this street are tightly held, and opportunities of this quality are rarely available. With its position, flexibility and proximity to town, this is one not to overlook.
