1 Sherwood Lane, Cashmere, Christchurch

Suburban Escape - Selling Below RV

Asking Price $935,000

Encompassed by natural beauty in a peaceful yet central Cashmere location, this architecturally crafted home enjoys magnificent views across the city and has recently received wide-ranging improvements.

Set in an idyllic environment resulting from the owners' extensive planting of kowhai, pohutukawa, cabbage trees, ponga, ngaio and ferns that attract abundant birdlife and provide a haven for the fantails, bellbirds, waxeyes and wood pigeons.

Recently completed earthquake repairs have given this architecturally designed home a new lease of life with top-to-toe enhancements including new carpet, resurfaced timber flooring, modernised bathrooms, a complete internal repaint, and new roofing. A rejuvenated Kerry Mason masterpiece!

A high curved roof and matching window design in the kitchen and dining area flood the heart of the home with natural light. Furthermore, double glazing retains warmth and reveals the extraordinary views that stretch over the city, Canterbury Plains and the Southern Alps.

Beautifully configured for everyday living and entertaining, there is an intimate area for cosier occasions, and more expansive spaces allow friends and family to gather with ease. Outdoor living options also come in the form of a substantial and sunny deck on the upper level while a more sheltered alternative, ideal for a spa pool, is offered downstairs.

Three well-proportioned double bedrooms provide accommodation, and superb storage solutions are offered throughout including the generous double garage that's accompanied by three off-street car parks.

The home's positioning couldn't be more perfect as it basks in a valley microclimate, remaining sheltered from the dreaded easterly, and all in the peace and tranquillity of a private lane. Despite this sense of seclusion, you have easy access to local cafes, amenities and excellent in-zone schools.
