CHARMING CHARACTER HOME
HIGH $400,000's
Down a delightful leafy little lane on the lower slopes of Tirohanga amongst many superior properties is this absolutely charming 1920's home which has been carefully renovated to compliment the character and quality of materials of homes build in this era whilst providing all the mod cons for 21st century living.
The generous family room has French doors out to the delightful garden and adjoins a good sized dining room and a lovely, well equipped with modern facilities, farmhouse style kitchen.
The spacious formal living room is just across the hall and has a window seat under a large picture window which takes in the whole of the valley out to the Harbour.
Buyers who appreciate craftsmanship, native timber, lead-lights and all those other wonderful details of early 20th century homes should not miss the opportunity to purchase this home.
There are 3 large bedrooms, the master has a walk in robe and a semi ensuite. There is also a good sized study conveniently located next to the living areas this could be a 4th bedroom. There is also a second toilet on this level.
This home is delightful in summer and cosy in winter with all rooms heated with radiator panel heating fuelled with either gas or electricity.
There is also the bonus of a double garage.
Tirohanga is a high socio-economic area and this grove has the advantage of having an easy walking distance via a path to the Melling Station, the Bridge into Lower Hutt, and the super river walking tracks. It is zoned for all the most popular schools, a school bus to these runs close by and the Steiner School is just minutes up the Hill.
This is a very special property which offers so much for the expected selling price which will be under the R/V of $500,000 as the owner reluctantly has decided to purchase a smaller home more suitable for her needs after many year of living in this lovely home.
