- Character
Steeped in character this elegant residence blends timeless charm with modern comfort. A high stud, rich timber beamed ceilings, rimu floors, leadlight windows and decorative detailing showcase the home's heritage appeal. Set on approximately 1793 m2 of sweeping lawns and curving driveway so many options unfold for a discerning buyer here.
Rarely do opportunities like this arise in early Matua , a very desirable peninsula suburb, but this is the first time ever on the market for this much cherished family home. A change of lifestyle for the current owners creates a special chance for character lovers who enjoy space and privacy to own this highly desirable property.
Year-round comfort is yours to enjoy. Entertaining is easy with living spaces flowing onto sheltered north and north western facing decks, surrounded by gorgeous gardens and mature trees. A sleek kitchen, an ensuite with underfloor heating, and two bathrooms reflect a different era but blend well with the original character. Two lounges and a kitchenette provide space for families to spread their wings or utilise this space with a separate wing for extended family or extra income. Set at the western end of the home is guest accommodation for a Bed and Breakfast if needed. This is a cosy stylish option for happy travellers. Ample off street parking is a bonus if a motorhome or boat is part of your wish list.
