Welcome to 4 Granville Terrace, in the sought-after suburb of Belleknowes.
At first glance, you’ll see the charm of a classic villa, but what sits behind the façade is essentially a near-new home. Completely recreated and thoughtfully reimagined, this is a property that delivers modern performance, comfort and peace of mind, with many of the benefits of a modern build.
Designed by Passive House architect Rafe Maclean and built by Stevenson & Williams Builders, every detail has been carefully considered. The result is a warm, dry, energy-efficient home that feels as good as it looks.
From the street, the home’s character is undeniable, with a welcoming veranda and easy access into the home. Step inside and the difference is immediate, clean lines, natural materials and a calm, Scandinavian-inspired feel create a space that is both modern and inviting. Bespoke macrocarpa joinery features throughout, adding warmth and craftsmanship to the interiors.
Natural light pours in through large picture windows, framing garden outlooks and capturing sweeping views across the city, harbour and out to the ocean.
The open-plan kitchen, dining and living area forms the heart of the home, designed for everyday living and entertaining. A granite benchtop sourced from India, quality Fisher & Paykel appliances and high-performance double-glazed joinery ensure this space is as functional as it is beautiful. Honeycomb blinds further enhance comfort year-round.
On this level also, a second living space with built-in cabinetry and a study area opens onto a front deck, offering elevated views and a perfect place to unwind.
Downstairs, three generous double bedrooms provide excellent accommodation. The master suite is a standout, complete with a walk-through robe and a beautifully finished ensuite with underfloor tile heating. The remaining bedrooms are well-appointed, supported by a stylish family bathroom.
Performance is where this home truly sets itself apart. A Stiebel Eltron ventilation system delivers fresh, filtered air throughout, while Terra Lana wool insulation, soundproofing between levels and three Daikin heat pumps ensure consistent warmth, quiet and comfort in every season.
Additional features include polished timber floors, LED lighting, fibre internet, a water filtration system, excellent storage options and separate laundry.
Outside, the easy-care section offers privacy and a peaceful, established setting, with a soft, woodland feel and productive vegetable gardens to enjoy.
Located close to Belleknowes Golf Club, quality schools and local amenities as well as public transport, or simply walk down the hill to town - this home combines lifestyle with convenience.
Beautifully rebuilt and designed for modern living, this is a home that offers the character people love, with the performance and reliability they expect. Welcome home to number 4.
