Set in highly sought-after Cambridge, a captivating 1940 (circa) bungalow sits comfortably overlooking a large flat lawn, dappled in sunlight through a few perfectly-placed, established trees. All of the big ticket items have been attended to here, while the unique characteristics of the original home remain, including detailed ceilings and window sashes, and native timber flooring which beautifully complements the restored weatherboard exterior.
The warm and immaculate presentation instantly invites you via a large, and private, sun-drenched deck, to step indoors and enjoy the atmosphere. Neutral tones and the open plan layout of the kitchen, dining and living gives a great sense of space and proportion. High stud throughout, the home is spacious, light and airy, with great storage options - particularly rare in character homes. French doors flow seamlessly from the multi-use entrance space to the north-facing entertaining area, positioned adjacent to the kitchen offering a glitter of opportunity for future owners; to extend the kitchen, create an additional living area or enjoy as is.
Accommodation is taken care of with three bedrooms serviced by the family bathroom. The front lawn is generous in size and fully fenced, offers garaging, further off street parking and a stylishly low maintenance garden with raised vegetable bins.
This gem has been re-wired, re-plumbed, re-roofed and had a complete exterior paint. It also enjoys excellent insulation. The rinnai gas heater creates a comfortable cosy nest for year-round enjoyment.
A short stroll from the Leamington shops and excellent local parks with plenty of dining options and shops available in Cambridge township. A hugely desirable location where entry-level character homes such as this are few and far between. Excellent school zones and a short drive to Lake Karapiro, St Peters School and the Velodrome complete the location's picture.
A sought-after property which will be very popular, the owners have committed to a new opportunity.
