Listing # 3321788 | Listed on 7 July

Offered for the first time in 24 years, Glenwood presents a once in a generation opportunity to secure one of Eastbourne's most significant and admired homes.

Set across an extraordinary 12.8840 hectares (more or less) of land, this remarkable estate offers a rare combination of history, privacy, space, and potential, all within minutes of Eastbourne Village, the beach, schools, and local amenities.

Designed by renowned Wellington architects James Bennie and E. C. Farr and built in 1904, this Heritage-listed residence showcases a unique blend of Edwardian Bay villa and Queen Anne architecture. Rich in character and craftsmanship, Glenwood stands as one of the eastern bays' earliest and most distinguished homes.

The main residence offers three bedrooms, including a generous master suite complete with ensuite and dressing room. Beautiful period features, grand proportions, and architectural detail create a home of exceptional character and charm.

Adding further versatility is the separate accommodation above the garage, providing two additional bedrooms and a bathroom - ideal for extended family, guests, teenagers, or a work from home setup.

More than just a home, Glenwood has been a place where children have been raised, lifelong friendships have been nurtured, and generations of family and friends have gathered to enjoy the unique lifestyle and natural beauty that Eastbourne has to offer.

While Glenwood remains an extraordinary home, it also presents a unique opportunity for its next owners to enhance and restore a property of genuine historical significance. For those with vision, there is immense potential to breathe new life into this iconic residence and return it to its former glory.

Whether you're seeking:

•A landmark family estate
•A significant heritage residence with a fascinating history
•A lifestyle property offering privacy and space rarely found so close to Wellington
•Or a rewarding restoration project with immense upside

Glenwood delivers an opportunity unlike anything else currently available in Eastbourne.

After 24 years of cherished ownership, this remarkable estate is ready for its next custodian.
