Sitting proudly on an elevated 948m² freehold site in one of Richmond's most exclusive streets, this captivating 1930's character residence delivers a rare blend of timeless charm, modern comfort, and breathtaking outlooks across Tasman Bay to the mountains beyond.
From the moment you arrive, the home's presence and position set the tone for something special. Inside, rich native timber flooring, stained glass windows, elegant rimu architraves, and soaring ceilings create a warm sense of heritage and craftsmanship that is increasingly hard to find. The generous open-plan living spaces are bathed in natural light and perfectly oriented to capture the sweeping views, while French doors invite effortless flow to a large elevated deck - an entertainer's dream and a front-row seat to stunning sunsets.
Accommodation is equally impressive, with three genuine double bedrooms, including a truly expansive master retreat complete with walk-in robe, ensuite, and French doors opening to the verandah. The main bathroom is a statement in character, showcasing a clawfoot bath, vintage rimu vanity, and a beautifully preserved early-1900s rimu cistern.
The kitchen is compact yet functional, featuring charming tongue-and-groove rimu detailing. A huge separate laundry backs onto the kitchen offering scope for future enhancement or reconfiguration.
Outdoors, the spacious grounds provide room to live, grow, and play - with established plantings, vegetable beds, and a generous lawn. There is ample parking with a large double carport.
Comfort and peace of mind come from modern upgrades including two heat pumps, extensive insulation, double glazing, and Healthy Homes compliance. Having been relocated in 2010 with new piles plus upgraded plumbing and wiring, this home beautifully combines classic character with contemporary assurance.
Set within a prestigious enclave close to shops, schools, and amenities, this is a rare opportunity to secure a distinctive residence offering lifestyle, location, and lasting appeal.
