Location is everything. Durham Street North has emerged after the events of 2010 as a charming blend of both character and new homes. Its location is sought after with everywhere and everything at your fingertips. Walk to the inner city and Hagley Park, stroll to Victoria Street with its variety of restaurants and cafes, or simply enjoy the cottage's quiet and private immediate surroundings.

This 1936 cottage is being sold on an 'as is, where is' basis however, it is still a glorious home in its own right. Still retaining the character features so highly regarded, this 140sqm home is adorned with lead lights, timber panelling and the architectural detailing synonymous with its period. It oozes a charm and sense of history that is so hard to replicate in modern builds. Currently offering three double bedrooms, a central bathroom alongside a north facing spacious living room. The kitchen enjoys a dining area and views out to its tranquil garden setting. A new roof, fresh paint, gas hot water and a free-standing large single garage with high ceilings and storage completes the picture.

Underpinning the value of this prime location is zoning for Christchurch Boys' and Girls' High Schools, Burnside High School, St Albans School and Heaton Intermediate.

Presented for your consideration is this exciting and rare opportunity - to warmly embrace this character home and take it into the future, or re-develop the 622sqm Residential Medium Density land (RMD) and create either your dream home or multiple dwellings? What will you choose?
