Character, Charm & Room to Grow

Some homes tell their story the moment you arrive.

Set on a generous 796m² section in a peaceful tree lined street, this beautifully renovated character home honours its heritage while embracing modern family living.

Original features have been retained, while thoughtful updates ensure the home is ready for the demands of contemporary family living.

From the light filled entranceway and wide hallway lined with traditional wainscoting and picture rails, to the original rimu doors and beautiful leadlight windows, character remains an important part of the home's identity. The result is a home that feels warm, authentic and wonderfully easy to live in.

At the centre of the home, the open plan kitchen, dining and living area creates a natural gathering place for family and friends. Large windows draw in natural light and frame views of the established gardens, while the updated kitchen offers generous bench space, breakfast bar seating, under bench oven, dishwasher and plenty of cupboard storage. A log burner, heat pump and HRV system contribute to year round comfort.

The layout has been designed with family life in mind. The spacious primary bedroom is filled with natural light and enjoys enough room for a quiet reading corner or sitting area. A second large bedroom features a charming bay window, leadlight detailing and excellent storage. The separate study adds flexibility for those working from home, studying or pursuing creative interests, while a family bathroom, separate laundry and powder room complete the ground floor.

Upstairs, two further double bedrooms provide excellent separation for teenagers, guests or extended family, supported by a modern second bathroom and additional storage.

Space like this is becoming increasingly difficult to find. There is room for children to run, pets to play and gardens to thrive. Established landscaping, a productive lemon tree, outdoor dining area, single garage, detached storage room/workshop, and additional off street parking create an outdoor setting that is both practical and inviting.

A gate from the backyard provides direct access to Woodham Reserve, giving families even more space to walk, play and explore beyond the boundary.

Conveniently located close to The Palms, local amenities and the city centre, this well established neighbourhood is loved for its green spaces, mature trees and strong sense of community.

For families, this is a home to settle into and enjoy. For those with an eye to the future, the Medium Density Residential zoning and substantial 796m² landholding offer possibilities worth considering.
