136 m2Once upon a time, more than a century ago, this remarkable period home was constructed and stands as a testament to the superior craftsmanship of the era. Presiding over an exceptional, well- established freehold section in a prime Napier Hill location, it is tucked away at the end of a quiet lane relishing peace and privacy. Prepare to be charmed by the preserved features of this timeless beauty including two ornate fireplaces, sash windows and high stud ceilings as well as decorative finials and fretwork. Even the original door knocker greets you at the door. A practical layout, offering flexibility to work in with your lifestyle, ideal for those seeking work-from-home opportunities.
The generous single level floor plan incorporates four bedrooms, serviced by a family bathroom featuring the traditional claw foot bath and separate shower. Entertaining is a breeze in the open plan living area, which flows out to the private deck, wrapping around the majestic Aloe Bainesii tree, with prolific bird life accentuating the tranquil setting. The morning sun will greet you on the front porch whilst the delightful courtyard area will offer a shady spot for those hot summer days. The fully fenced grounds have been terraced to enhance the outdoor living experience, with steps leading down to a platform of level lawn where the kids will spend hours in the playhouse, meandering along the pathways through the well- established tropical landscape and bush, picking fruit or collecting eggs from the chook house, quite simply having fun and making memories.
This lovely home has been sympathetically updated over the years to provide contemporary comfort, including a kitchen extension and new laundry with sink and 2nd toilet. And the fact that it has been re-piled, re-roofed, rewired, and replumbed adds total peace of mind. The large, more recently constructed garage with a workshop and woodshed adds practicality and storage with good off-street parking which is a rarity on the Hill.
A true hidden gem; an appealing blend of heritage character in a highly convenient location, exceptionally close to the vibrant cafes, restaurants, shops and beaches at Ahuriri and Marine Parade, offering numerous cycle paths/walkways and excellent schools to choose from. This is an opportunity to experience blissful living in a tranquil, yet accessible setting.
After 20 years the vendors are downsizing and moving onto the next chapter in their lives - and would love you to enjoy this lovely home as much as they have.
