This stunning property showcases the exceptional talent of architect Sir Miles Warren and the distinctive 'Christchurch style' of mid-century modern architecture. Long and low, hugging the gentle slopes of the lower hills, it looks out over the city from a beautifully sheltered position and a wonderful established garden on 2,441 sqm. Careful alterations and renovations have enhanced the quality of the original home, resulting in an elegant and light-filled contemporary residence.
Importantly, all the hard work has been done - including full double glazing, complete electrical re-wiring, a new roof, upgraded insulation, as well as flooring and ground insulation - offering peace of mind and modern comfort throughout.
Arranged across the northwest, the living spaces boast the soaring pitched ceilings so characteristic of this style. With cleverly positioned skylights creating patterns of light and shade, and timber shutters enabling full control of light and privacy, the space is ambient and welcoming. A casual sitting area with log-burner flows to dining and a high-spec contemporary kitchen, where an island counter, gas cooktop and two wall ovens make an exceptional hub for entertaining. Positioned alongside is a separate lounge perfect for relaxing in sumptuous style while enjoying the views. The master bedroom is a palatial retreat with its own sitting area, WIR and en suite. Three more bedrooms share a family bathroom with separate bath. An impressive utility room takes family functionality to new levels, and a carport makes for easy living.
Outside, a veranda extends along the north, flowing to a sunny terrace and garden. Behind the house, a network of pathways connect gently sloping lawn and fruit trees with a veggie garden. With very little left to do beyond enhancing the garden aesthetics, the property presents an easy opportunity to add your own finishing touches.
Zoned for Halswell School and walking distance to Halswell Quarry Park and Te Kuru Wetland, the cafes of Halswell are within easy reach, making this home a special blend of peace and convenience.
