Dear Villa Lovers, if you love a charming solid Edwardian treasure, then it's time to roll up to the door of 36 Napier Terrace for an elegant opportunity.
With a sensitive upstairs addition and integral double garage - this treasure has some modern extras to enhance and add to its livability and charm. Embrace the stunning views to Cape Kidnappers from the upstairs second living or possible master suite with its own balcony, powder room and dressing room or child's bedroom on the same level. The open plan layout downstairs provides a practical family space so there's no need to shout, one side of the double bay has a modern country style kitchen in keeping with the period, which opens to a dining and family room. Be wowed as you enter the front door and your eyes sweep upwards to beautiful rimu paneled ceilings with high studs and a half timber paneled broad entrance hall, leading on one side to the living or the other side to three double bedrooms and a bonus extra shower room with walk in/dressing space off the last bedroom. Then at the rear of the Villa and past the stairs to the upper level, there's a very generous family bathroom and separate laundry room. In all there are two toilets, two vanities and two showers, with opportunities to make three bathrooms from the existing floorplan by adding to the basic layout. The extra rear courtyard entrance has given the existing owners a home and income, with one rear double bedroom, being listed on AirBnB as a short-term rental.
Options could be to expand this or bring it back to being an extensive family home. The compact section means little outside work, but there's space to lounge in the sun on the north facing front lawn or relax in the west facing private rear courtyard with space for a spa and a BBQ area. Off street parking and an integral double garage, make this a convenient home. There is still an extra storage shed and utility area behind. This lovely piece of NZ history awaits, with all the charm of solid native timbers, and has been reroofed and re-piled, ready for your cosmetic touch up.
