Surprisingly affordable Villa on 1012sqm site

OPEN HOMES CANCELLED. Yes, this is a four-bedroom villa, and yes this is a quarter-acre site, but that doesn't mean it is out of reach price-wise. The current owners have bought and are highly motivated and willing to sell in the low two millions. This represents an extraordinarily affordable opportunity to live your dream life in Devonport. This property is now open to conditional offers... this is your chance.

You will love the villa's proportions, period character and potential. The two-level home offers four bedrooms (or three bedrooms and two living areas), two bathrooms and an office, and is nestled in north-facing rambling gardens with plenty of space for a pool. There's secure off-street parking and a generous garage out front, with the veranda wrapping all the way around the home to overlook the north-facing rear garden. Inside, the wide hallway is an impressive introduction and is flooded with natural light from the large glass window at the end of it. Rich heritage features include a feature archway, timber panelling, high pressed steel ceilings, stained glass and kauri floors.

The open-plan living, dining and contemporary kitchen space flows out to both the veranda and private deck, which is an absolute suntrap and perfect for summer entertaining. The family bathroom and three generous bedrooms are located on this level. This includes the huge master with window seat and views of Mount Victoria. Downstairs offers another modern bathroom, office area and fourth bedroom.

Outside, the expansive lawns are framed with mature bushes and trees, perfect for hide and seek and filled with native birds. Thanks to a perfectly north-facing aspect, the grounds are flooded with light and sun. The wide site offers endless potential with plenty of space for a pool, as well as options a plenty to renovate the home itself.
