This substantial 205sqm freestanding home offers the kind of space that is getting harder to find this close to Merivale. It gives you the best of both worlds, the low maintenance feel of something newer, without compromising on room, privacy or storage.

Why buy brand new and squeeze into a smaller footprint when you can have oversized bedrooms, two separate living areas, established gardens and a high spec finish already in place?

The north facing main living area is light, warm and well connected, with skylights over the dining space, a modern kitchen and French doors opening to one of the courtyards. A second lounge at the rear gives the home real flexibility and opens directly to the garden.

Upstairs, the scale continues. All three bedrooms are genuinely generous, with excellent wardrobe storage, while the master includes a large walk in robe and tiled ensuite with freestanding bath. A second tiled bathroom services the remaining bedrooms.

The home is finished in a clean, contemporary palette throughout, with a double internal access garage, established landscaping and very little maintenance required.

The location is another major drawcard. You're within walking distance of Merivale Village and close to Hagley Park, the CBD and a strong line-up of school zones including St Albans School, Elmwood School, Heaton Intermediate, Christchurch Boys' High, Christchurch Girls' High and Papanui High.

More space, more privacy and more home than many newer options nearby. A rare combination, contact Cameron or Kirstyn to arrange a private viewing.
