Retirement Unit Booked - Must be Sold!!

Our owners must move quickly to secure their new home and future in their desired retirement village. A happy time indeed, a time to pass the reins to a new family to grow and enjoy this meticulously maintained property, as our vendors have for the past 29 years.

As with many hill properties this home is built over multiple levels, the first level accessed from the private ROW is of course the double garage (with auto door, workbench and overhead storage). Featuring all new retaining walls, banisters and driveway. The garage is cleverly joined to the main dwelling with a glass atrium.

The main living level includes the open plan kitchen/living, all 4 double bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and 2 toilets. Fantastic balconies from the lounge and master bedroom offer sunny and private elevated views over the garden and out to Hillsborough Park and beyond.

The lower level of this home offers a very generous formal lounge, complete with library! A great space for the whole family to enjoy together. Once again a ranch slider gives you direct access to another fabulous balcony and north facing patio area.

There are multiple ways to access the gardens, and let me tell you; you will also need to set aside a little extra time to explore the sunny and peaceful sanctuary, which is the garden of 8 Huntlywood Terrace. Consisting of a plentiful array of vegetables, fruit, mature shrubs, hedges, trees, ferns and pungas. Named pathways afford you a truly unique 'bush walk' experience. Such a garden indeed needs an equally unique watering system and the current owner has fastidiously crafted an environmentally friendly rainwater collection and watering system to ensure the garden is fully maintained with very minimal effort.

Constructed of Lawson Cypress weatherboards and very much loved for its convenient location, warmth and views. There are so many other sustainable features of this property you will need to ask me for further details. We also have a receipt for new guttering.

Great school zoning including Cashmere High and St Martins Primary. An excellent opportunity for growing families to get onto the hill. So close to many popular tracks on the Port Hills, famous for mountain biking, walking and running. A very unique home in a special location.

Viewing is essential to appreciate everything this property has to offer. Please start by viewing our online 3D video tour https://my.matterport.com/show/?m=r6xL6T8HfWY (cut and paste the link) and then come along to the open home to see if the potential of this property and the motivation of the vendors will be the winning combination you and your family have been looking for.

With a firm decision made, our owners have invested in a builders report and engineers report to show you their confidence in the property (and also their motivation to sell!). Call today for further details.

Agent

Louise McLeavey

Harcourts Beckenham

Licensed Real Estate Salesperson (REAA 2008), Member of the REINZ

Starting her Real Estate career in the middle of a recession was certainly a brave thing to do. Couple this with over 20,000 Canterbury earthquakes and you can see that Louise is a highly motivated and success driven agent, having proven herself through awards and accolades including winning the highly contested “Harcourts Canterbury Rising Star of the Year 2010/2011” and since writing over 80 million dollars’ worth of business in Christchurch and the wider Canterbury area, for her vendors.
No stranger to hard sales, Louise brings 36 years of marketing and negotiation experience to the table. But unlike insurance or time share there is no “old school” selling here. Louise works very hard to get all the information up front through the systems she has in place. This information is then passed onto the prospective purchasers clearly and efficiently so that they can make informed decisions.
Buyers want information and they want it FAST! Moving with the times and using the latest technology Louise can provide this information to anyone, from anywhere, at any time of the day or night. By leading the way with technology Louise gives you and your property a huge advantage in reaching the greatest number of potential viewers and in turn, potential buyers.
Undivided loyalty and utmost good faith towards her clients is the reason Louise helps so many people achieve their goals. She is committed to doing everything possible to facilitate a successful result on your behalf.
