You really want a "new" home but don't like the idea of living in a jam-packed subdivision. Well, here's an ideal solution - a four-bedroom family home on Hill Street, Richmond, with beautiful, open views to the Bay.
This feels like a proper, traditional Kiwi home, your own private retreat in tip top condition and delightfully elevated so you'll never feel hemmed in.
No, it's not brand new, but everything about this solid 1950s home, two blocks from Queen Street, has been meticulously renovated and modernised by its builder owner.
It's immaculately presented, a delight throughout with new kitchen and bathroom, smart, roomy new deck, new paint inside and out, new window treatments and flooring, and insulation to code in ceilings and underfloor. The whole place sparkles with freshness.
Pack up the family and move straight in. Spring is here and BBQs on the deck with kids playing on the lawn are ready to be enjoyed!
The house is well off the road, at the back of a shared drive with the house at the front, sturdy with its white aluminium joinery, stucco cladding and Colorsteel tile-profile roof.
There's parking for multiple vehicles (room for boat or caravan), including a double car port.
Step inside and be surprised at the room in the house, from the delightful lounge, with window seat looking out to sea, to the four bedrooms.
The island-bar kitchen is brand new, from the soft-close joinery to the up-to-the-minute induction hob - and plenty of pantry and storage space.
The flooring - a combination of carpet and timber-look laminate - has been renewed as well along with the electricals, including new switches and lights. Even the internal doors have been smartly standardised for a uniform look.
There's an DVS ventilation system as well.
The 587sqm garden section is nicely landscaped, with low fencing at the front to optimise the views and add to the feeling of wide-open spaces. There are lawns for play and gardens for pottering and vege/herb growing.
