This charming character home, in the sunny, desirable neighbourhood of lower Brook Street, delivers contemporary comforts while honouring its history. Thoughtfully upgraded, insulated and well-maintained, it seamlessly merges traditional with modern, a graceful combination of function and flair.
The refurbished custom kitchen is crafted in golden rimu with cork tile flooring. It has a dishwasher, Gaggenau induction cooktop, self-cleaning oven, ample cupboards and shelving. A laundry area is discreetly placed behind bi-fold doors.
Picture windows overlooking the garden bring the outdoors in, and there's a backdoor to a paved patio with a wisteria canopy, ideal for gathering friends and family together.
Big enough for celebrations, the dining room has a cosy heat pump and an original built-in dresser and display shelves. The spacious living room stays snug all winter with an eco-wood burner set nicely into a brick and tile surround, plus there's a heat transfer system.
French doors open from a bay window onto a private, fully-fenced, sun-drenched deck with raised beds and flower boxes - a lovely spot for morning coffee or afternoon snoozes.
There are two double bedrooms. One has windows on two sides and extensive built-in furniture. The other is well-lit with two closets and French doors. A carpeted sunroom with wide windows and leadlight features could be used as a third bedroom, office, additional living area or games room.
Beautifully upgraded, the pristine white-tiled bathroom has underfloor heating, a shower over the bath, a toilet and hand-basin, fan heater and heated towel rail.
The single car garage has a workbench, rafter storage and extensive shelving, and there's extra off-street parking.
Established and productive, the garden has apple and lemon trees, a grapevine, feijoa hedge, multiple outdoor dining areas, and two utility sheds, one stacked with wood.
An easy walk to schools and kindie, CBD, hiking/biking trails and the Maitai river. It's a home with warmth and soul, waiting to welcome you.
