As Is, Where Is - Architects Own Home

Grandchildren in Melbourne and heading towards retirement, two compelling reasons for our owners to relinquish this unique Merivale property after a wonderful 17 year tenure.

Designed by award winning architect Alun Wilkie in 1998 for his own family home, the 430sqm site magically encompasses a rear 180sqm house and an attached 74sqm two bedroom flat.

The property is to be sold uninsured, however extensive renovations over a two year period to house and garden have delivered a 'better home than before'.
Key elements include swimming pool removal, new landscaping, full exterior painting, interior painting, new appliances and brand new Bosca woodburner.
The main dwelling has all the ingredients of comfortable living and draws you through from one surprise to the next; the den is a favourite spot to relax or perhaps it's next to the cosy fire.
Accommodation on the first floor includes a master bedroom with ensuite and large dressing room (designed to convert to a third bedroom), plus an additional double bedroom and separate bathroom.

The modestly named 'flat' has a multiplicity of uses, from income producing holiday let or rental, work from home office, or simply idyllic accommodation for visiting friends and family.

Perfectly positioned in a prime location, the cul-de-sac enjoys easy access to Merivale Village and our world famous Hagley Park, linking you conveniently to Victoria Street precinct and the smorgasbord of eateries and boutiques.

If educational needs are a consideration, zoning for Christchurch Boys' High and Christchurch Girls' High Schools, Elmwood School and Heaton Intermediate School and walking distance to the city's very best private schools.

You will have your own exciting plans on how to utilise what's on offer, our recommendation is to visit immediately and get ready for 7th October.
