There's a lot to love about a home that combines the solidity and character of the 1960s with the comfort of thoughtful modern updates. Beautifully renovated while retaining plenty of its original charm, this four-bedroom, two-bathroom brick home is warm and welcoming with a wonderfully relaxed feel - and all the ingredients for family life. North-facing living spaces are filled with natural light and warmth throughout the day, making the most of the winter sun when it matters most.
Beautiful timber flooring runs through the main living spaces, adding warmth and character to the home. A natural entertainer's layout, with the kitchen, dining and outdoor spaces working beautifully together forming one cohesive living space, with the kitchen taking centre stage. Solid concrete benchtops, a classic butler's sink and modern appliances give it a timeless, considered feel, while its sociable position makes entertaining effortless, keeping the host amongst the conversation and company. From here, the connection outdoors is a real highlight. The adjoining dining area opens through timber bi-fold doors to a private Kwila entertaining deck, creating an effortless extension of the living space. Whether it's summer lunches with friends, children playing in the backyard or simply enjoying a quiet drink outside, the flow between indoors and out makes this a home that is easy to enjoy.
Two of the four bedrooms open directly to the sunny, fully fenced backyard, adding another layer of practicality and connection to the outdoors. The two bathrooms have been beautifully finished with contemporary concrete surfaces. The newly renovated ensuite features a stylish frameless tiled shower, while the family bathroom offers a relaxed feel, where a soothing bath sits beneath charming bi-fold windows overlooking the backyard. Comfort has been well considered throughout, with Expol underfloor insulation, an HRV ventilation system, heat pump and wood burner ensuring the home remains warm and comfortable through the seasons.
Outside, the fully fenced, easy-care grounds are well suited to families and pets, with a variety of established vegetable garden beds, a rose garden and newly planted lemon and feijoa trees adding colour and character. A double garage with an integrated workbench adds excellent versatility, whether you need space for vehicles, bikes, projects or extra storage. Positioned alongside a park, there's also an added sense of space and openness to the setting. The location is another advantage, positioned in a family-friendly neighbourhood with schools, Taupo's town centre and everyday amenities all within easy reach.
This is a home with genuine character, beautiful original touches and a thoughtful renovation that has brought it comfortably into modern-day living. Whether you're looking for a family home, a Taupo holiday retreat or a sound investment, this property offers a combination of warmth, practicality and personality that is becoming increasingly hard to find.
