Amazing Space, Amazing Grace

An exciting career progression now takes our vendors to Vancouver, necessitating the sale of this grand and glorious home. Deceptively vast, the 19th century homestead provides 5 bedrooms and multiple entertaining spaces; original features have been retained, including stained glass windows, ceiling roses and claw foot baths with a distinctive turret the icing on the cake. Crucial service areas have benefited from some contemporization, with diesel fired central heating throughout ensuring winter comfort. Scope remains to further update and an EQC settlement of almost $80,000 will pass to the new owners, providing additional sweetener. Residing upon a mouth-watering parcel of 1,801m² (zoned TC2), the well-established English gardens provide beautiful formal entertaining spaces and ample lawns for children to romp.

Add to this the benefits of an adjoining one bedroom self-contained flat with separate entrance (previously returning $400 pw) and the options are endless - utilise for extended family, work from home or use the income stream to offset your mortgage. Superb schools zones (including Elmwood Primary, CBHS & CGHS) and proximity to nearby Merivale Village, Victoria St and Hagley Park ensure your leisure and educational requirements are well met; the L2 zoning provides further financial fortification.

Knowing how difficult it will be to replicate this character charmer elsewhere, we can sympathise with our client's hesitancy - but the tyranny of distance brooks no opposition and it must be sold to facilitate their imminent migration.
