25 Brassey Road, St Johns Hill, Whanganui

Charming bungalow with position and potential

Prepare to be wowed! When the vendors were moving into this charming early 1900s bungalow, so many passers-by stopped to ask if they could look inside. This is one example of the huge appeal of this much-admired property in one of Whanganui's top streets.

With three living areas, the home offers loads of space for families to really spread out plus various entertainment areas, both inside and out. The formal living room is spacious and flows out onto a generous verandah which is the perfect spot to enjoy a G&T at the end of the day. The dining room has a pretty window seat, built-in storage plus a very convenient serving hatch through to the kitchen. Even in winter, this is a gorgeous room for entertaining as it is warmed by an attractive gas fireplace, perfect for creating ambience. The kitchen will delight people who love to cook. Attractive fretwork and polished wooden floors add to the warmth and character and storage cupboards have been well catered for. There is a casual sitting space that spills out through french doors to another deck which offers a sunny spot to relax and enjoy the native birdlife from neighbouring Virginia Lake. The master bedroom is very generous with good wardrobing and the second bedroom is large and leads into an office/sunroom. The family bathroom has a shower and bath and there is a second shower and toilet in the laundry room. On the upper level is the third bedroom with an adjoining area suited to another living space - absolutely perfect for a teenage retreat. A further storage area lends itself to being made into a third bathroom.
A double garage with off-street parking and a garden shed means there is ample storage for cars, tools and toys.
This property retains so many features that are nods to its history and yet it is perfectly suited to life in the 21st century. The location is blue-chip, close to top schools, amenities and access to the beautiful Virginia Lake is just two doors down. Make sure to contact me for more information as this is a very special opportunity.
