Well hidden from the road, down a long drive - but so close to the city – this private sanctuary on a section of 5433m2 offers an opportunity for those looking for something a little different.
The property begins with an 85 m2 architecturally designed home with substantial alterations from the original native floorboards up, and faithfully restored on the original footprint. It features macrocarpa cladding, an understated ply interior, double glazing, and wool insulation in the walls and ceiling. A monopitch coloursteel roof, with stylish black guttering, a carport and an attached lockup shed with roller doors completes the picture. The home has two double bedrooms, a study with original matchboard panelling, a separate kitchen incorporating many original features, bathroom/laundry and open plan lounge/dining with a Metro wood fire. French doors open out to a wooden deck where you can enjoy peace and quiet with the background of birdsong.
Moving further back on the section you will find a large steel framed shed (77m2) with power connection which, with a little work, will make a great space for projects, motorhome or a boat.
The section has volcanic soil and is level from the home to the rear boundary. Here you will discover a very private enclave enhanced by beautiful original stone walls, substantial new native plantings, original fruit tree and native bush abundant with tui and kereru. An additional connection for services is another unexpected attribute to this property.
Vendor had big dreams but sadly is unable to see the reality. Their loss - your gain.
