If you've been waiting to find a character family home in the heart of Havelock North, wait no longer.
Originally designed by architect Eric Phillips in the 1930s, with more recent alterations for kitchen, scullery, bathroom and ensuite designed by Simon Clarkson, this four bedroom, two bathroom home has been sympathetically renovated with a 1930s aesthetic in mind, but with all the comforts of modern family living. Meticulous in design detail, much love and care has gone into creating a warm and inviting home with high-quality fixtures throughout.
The wide street frontage and attractive roofline of this single-level weatherboard property has lovely street appeal. Walking distance to Havelock North village shopping, cafes, top primary and secondary schools and Te Mata Peak walking and mountain bike tracks, and in prime position across the road from Duart House and Gardens, the flat but elevated section is private and not overlooked.
A large double garage has extra mezzanine storage and workshop space. Additional off-street and handy street parking accommodates visitors with ease.
The living areas face north-west, with stunning sunsets looking towards Mt Erin and the ranges. Choose which outdoor space is best for your morning coffee, depending on the season.
Open plan kitchen, dining and living overlooks the inviting blue of the magnesium swimming pool framed by palm trees in your own private back yard oasis. The secure rear garden offers unobstructed access to the deck and pool directly from the kitchen and living room double French doors.
A cooks' kitchen is as functional as it is beautiful, featuring Falcon rangehood and double oven with induction cooktop as the centrepiece. The Corian island bench with seating makes the kitchen a natural place to gather with family and friends. A generous scullery has open shelving with all your ingredients at your fingertips. The adjoining laundry features a butler's sink.
Perrin & Rowe tapware and bathroom fittings, plus clawfoot bath add to the modern traditional vibe of the home, as do the shutters and FL Bone radiators providing cosy central heating.
The art deco inspired master bedroom has a tiled ensuite with underfloor heating. There are three further bedrooms - one overlooking the pool making an ideal fourth bedroom, guest bedroom or home office.
With this home you really can have it all. This exceptional property offers a harmonious blend of timeless charm, modern living and convenient location.
