A Home That Warms the Heart

This beautifully renovated two-bedroom, single-level brick home perfectly balances modern upgrades with preserved original charm. Fully insulated in the ceiling, floors, and all external and internal walls, it offers exceptional warmth and comfort year-round. Both bedrooms are generous doubles, with the master enjoying a private ensuite.

The renovation has been completed with a keen eye for detail - highlighted by the elegant built-in cupboard thoughtfully added to the living area, while original features like the front door and surrounding glass panels have been lovingly retained.

Stylish updates throughout include high-quality bathrooms with underfloor heating, a modern kitchen, premium fittings, and a cosy log burner. A HEX390 domestic ventilation system with heat exchanger ensures exceptional air quality and energy-efficient warmth throughout the home, contributing to a healthy and inviting living environment. The home flows effortlessly to a generous deck - ideal for entertaining or quiet relaxation.

A new, fully lined single garage with external access adds practicality, while the established planters around the home bring both beauty and the opportunity for productive gardening. Green thumbs will also appreciate the multiple raised wooden garden beds, perfect for year-round vegetable growing.

At the rear of the property, a fully insulated studio offers a versatile space for hobbies, remote work, or creative pursuits.

Centrally located within walking distance to New World Fendalton, cafés, and essential amenities. Zoned for top schools - Ilam School, Cobham Intermediate, Burnside High, Christchurch Boys' High, and Christchurch Girls' High - and just a short stroll to the University of Canterbury. With convenient access to both the city centre and Christchurch Airport, this home truly sits in one of the city's most desirable locations.

The vendor has poured immense love, care, and craftsmanship into this home. As life moves into a new chapter and future plans evolve, they are now seeking a home that better supports their growing aspirations. They part with this property reluctantly, hoping the next owner will cherish it as much as they have
