Classical Inner City - Live & Work

For the first time in decades this superb property is offered to the open market. With a history spanning over a hundred years this property has been lovingly and fastidiously maintained, modernised and enhanced into an outstanding inner city retreat. All modernisation work has been thoroughly executed and has included new roofing, new piling, rewiring and the installation of copper plumbing. The building is in internally divided into two parts: - one part featuring professional offices and the other part a comfortable and convenient three bedroom home with internal access between the two. Planning approval is in place for the commercial part of the property. The property is centrally located at the corner of Grey and Norfolk Streets in an elevated position above the Town Basin and downtown CBD. The surrounding neighbourhood is characterised by high quality inner city living intermixed with professional office buildings. The site is within a short flat walk to the High Court complex and within easy walking distance of CBD Whangarei. The living accommodation has been tastefully modernised while retaining its classical architectural style. Extensive use has been made of quality native timbers, especially Kauri and this is evident throughout the dwelling. The layout of the kitchen/ dining area is enhanced by the positioning of the adjoining patio area. This patio provides an all -weather private space that takes full advantage of morning sun yet provides a cool outdoor space at the end of a hot summer day. Off street car parking space for the living accommodation is provided by a double garage with direct access off Norfolk Street. There is additional space for three cars outside the entrance to this garage. The Commercial part of the property has two off-street car parks off Grey Street.
