On the city's doorstep, this substantial standalone 1910 residence offers generous proportions, beautiful character detailing and excellent sun.
Elevated on The Terrace, this home has the scale and presence of a traditional family residence, yet it is just moments from the heart of the city. The setting enjoys a sense of calm and separation from the city while remaining incredibly convenient. Rich in character, this home showcases elegant timber panelling, leadlight windows, high-stud ceilings with decorative detailing and a striking entrance stairwell, while versatile living spaces provide flexibility for modern lifestyles.
What makes this home special:
- Four generously proportioned bedrooms, including a sunny primary bedroom with decorative fireplace, timber panelling and updated walk-through ensuite, along with an oversized second bedroom featuring its own north-facing sunroom, also ideal as a study or creative space.
- Multiple living areas, including a formal living room, dining room, dedicated work-from-home office, and spacious open-plan family living and dining adjoining the kitchen.
- Character kitchen with timber cabinetry, oversized stone and stainless benches, skylight for additional natural light and excellent storage, with integrated laundry.
- Modernised family bathroom with separate WC and a conveniently located guest WC on the living level.
- Secure paved courtyard garden with a discreet utility area - ideal for entertaining, family time, pets and everyday living.
- Rare three-car garaging, along with a generous under-house workshop and attic storage.
- Outlook toward Kumutoto Forest (part of the City to Sea Walkway), providing a green backdrop and the sounds of native birdlife.
With Victoria University, Kelburn Village, the Botanic Gardens, Town Belt, cafes, restaurants and the CBD all within easy walking distance, this is a home that delivers a truly convenient city-fringe lifestyle. Zoned for well-regarded secondary schools and offering character, scale and a standalone position on The Terrace, it presents a compelling opportunity for families and professionals wanting space, charm and walkable city living.
