Tucked away near the top of a quiet, leafy cul-de-sac, this modest but versatile character home exudes soul and charm just a short stroll from the city. There’s scope to add value at your leisure or simply enjoy its vintage appeal, with the flexibility of 2-4 bedrooms plus work-from-home space, amid the greenery and heritage that make this village community so iconic. Features include:
- Up to three double-bedrooms, including the option of using one as a study with a sunny bay window, kauri desk, sideboard and bookshelves
- Attached sleep-out or studio that also would make excellent work-from-home space as it’s externally accessible and removed from the rest of the household
- Combination of ‘30s character, including leadlights and double-sided tiled fireplace (non-working), with the conveniences of a modern heat pump and a newly-lined attic for extra storage
- Improved where it matters, with the front of the house having been repiled and reclad with new weatherboards for peace-of-mind maintenance
- Huge bonus of a basement workshop, complete with workbench, that’s perfect for hobbyists and do-it-yourselfers or would make an incredible storeroom
- Located in peaceful no-exit street where birdsong and native bush abound just metres from bus stops
- On the doorstep of Aro Village, which is as much a destination for tourists as locals, with its craft brewery bar, boutique eateries and vintage video store
- Handy to the city while being even closer to the Waimapihi Reserve for mountain-biking and picturesque rambling
- Just a short walk to Victoria University (approximately 6 minutes) and only 15 minutes to Cuba Street, adding to the home’s unbeatable inner-city convenience
First-time buyers couldn’t wish for a better start to home ownership if they value location, character and proximity to downtown and nature. Don’t miss open home viewings.
