1/127 Fendalton Road

Substantial in Presence, Intimate in Atmosphere.

Tucked quietly away in the intimate setting of Quamby Place, just off Fendalton Road, 1/127 offers a rare combination of substance, privacy and beautifully considered living.

This distinctive two storey residence blends semi-character appeal with contemporary comfort. Roughcast composite cladding complements wide-gauge rough-sawn cedar, while natural Rimu features bring warmth and timeless character throughout. The modernisation has been thoughtfully overseen by MAP Architects, honoring the original design while elevating it for today's lifestyle.

At the heart of the home is a sumptuous and highly practical kitchen, designed by Davinia Sutton. Soft-closing cabinetry, abundant storage, a generous pantry, cleverly concealed laundry, and adjoining breakfast bar create an entertainer's kitchen that naturally becomes the home's anchor. The dining and living spaces provide an easy connection for everyday family life, while the spacious formal lounge offers a quieter retreat, warmed by a gas fire.

Four bedrooms - three doubles and one single - provide versatility, with the master bedroom and family room enjoying the additional comfort of water-filled radiators, heated through the home's heat-pump system. Underfloor heating extends through the downstairs tiled areas and into both the ensuite and family bathroom.

Practicality has been exceptionally well considered. There is internal-access double garaging, loft storage with pull-down ladder, plus generous off-street parking. Two upstairs toilets compliment the family bathroom and ensuite, with a further toilet downstairs. Garage-based water filtration provides an additional level of care for the home's potable water supply.

Yet it is outside where another chapter unfolds. North-facing and beautifully landscaped, the garden is a private wonderland of mature plantings, raised gardens, irrigation system, garden shed and fish pond. Designed by Ben McMaster, these spaces create a sense of tranquility and seclusion, with all living areas overlooking this peaceful setting. There is an almost magical quality to the way the indoor and outdoor environments meet - equally suited to entertaining, relaxation or simply enjoying the changing seasons.

The setting completes the picture. Sheltered from the bustle of Fendalton Road, yet remarkably close to parks, shops, the University, the vibrant city centre, the airport and those arterial routes North and South, everyday convenience is effortlessly within reach. Leading private schools are also nearby, while the home enjoys highly regarded school zoning for Fendalton Primary, Cobham Intermediate, Burnside High and Christchurch Girls' and Boys' High Schools.

1/127 is a home where the substantial leads and contemporary comfort follows. It has that increasingly rare capacity to accommodate both people and possessions without compromising the sense of space, sanctuary or style.

Perhaps most importantly, it feels infused with thought " a residence where architecture, garden and lifestyle have been
brought together in a remarkably cohesive way.
