This stunning turn of the century heritage villa is screaming to be restored to its former glory with its traditional features including ornate timber scroll finishes and stained glass, or you could investigate other options.

This home is currently separated into two dwellings, a 2 bedroom flat at the front of the home and a 4 bedroom/2 bathroom home at the rear. Each has its own entrance and is on separate power. If you are looking for a great project to live in and do up while still having income, this is the place for you! The ceilings have been lowered in places as previous owners had plans to put more rooms upstairs in the attic space (plans in council file). All this on 1186m2 flat section in a leaf streety with a grass medium.

The former Melrose Private Hospital in Ngāruawāhia is thought to have been built by Dr David Martin soon after 1920. In Ngāruawāhia Dr David Martin acquired a residential lot from local auctioneer JR Hetherington in August 1920; it appears he built a transitional bungalow for use as a private hospital soon after. Martin (circa 1893-1949) had been excused military service in January 1917 because he was the only doctor in Ngāruawāhia at the time.
