An undeniable 'time capsule' of beautiful character features exuding a traditional warmth and original detailing from the original 1920's homestead. A welcoming, wood panelled foyer with leadlight windows forms a central hub and an introductory showcase of the many extraordinary features within this delightful home. The 274sqm floor plan entices you to explore the multiple formal and informal living or dining options that elegantly interconnect throughout this residence. Contemporary in style, the modern kitchen boasts quality appliances and adjoins a scullery and a large sitting room. A north-facing sunroom offers a relaxing retreat throughout the day and features one of many sets of double doors sited on the north and west aspects. These outdoor connections create a seamless flow to multiple paved patios and courtyards embraced within the landscaped 1,305sqm gardens. Designed to accommodate the largest of families this home comprises five double bedrooms and one single plus four tiled bathrooms including a downstairs bedroom and adjacent bathroom. The main suite boasts a sunny, leafy outlook plus double-glazing, an en-suite and a walk-in-robe. Although the genuine essence of a character home remains, these features are intertwined with modern amenities that would be expected from the most discerning, modern day buyer including three heat pumps, a logburner, a gas fire, under-tile heating in three bathrooms and a nitestore. Nestled within the established grounds sits a separate, two room studio that invites a multitude of recreational or professional uses and flows to its own private courtyard. A spectacular al fresco dining area with an outdoor fire, an established vegetable garden and a play house completes the exterior landscaping. The double garage is complemented by further storage and ample off-street parking for multiple cars, a boat or a trailer. Zoned for Heaton and Cobham Intermidates, Burnside High School, Papanui High School plus Waimairi School.
