12 Panorama Road, Sumner, Christchurch

Sold Prior to Auction

A wonderful example of 1970s architecture in a prime position on Panorama Road. Designed by local architect, John Chaplin this pole house is well-constructed over multi levels. The levels become part of your life and enjoyment of the home. Sited well on the section, the home steps down the hill to take advantage of the amazing views. Your gaze is drawn to the wonderful vistas that are Sumner, Southshore spit, the Southern Alps, Kaikoura and beyond. Surrounded by native gardens and abundant bird life, this is a very special home with private space to hide away.

The entrance level has a cosy living area, with sea views and opens to the deck that leads down to a wonderful brick patio - perfect for entertaining. A separate office is also on this level. The next level has three bedrooms and a shower room, the main bedroom with brilliant views and a small balcony. The next level down is the kitchen, the first room to see the sunrise and the moonrise. Then move to the enclosed sunroom to enjoy your morning coffee, with the best views in the house across the horizon - the perfect spot for the binoculars to watch the activities of boats going into Port.

The next level down is to the dining room, a lovely homely space, once again with brilliant views and opening to the brick patio and the garden. If you desire an artist's studio - here is the hidden space at the bottom of the house.

The current owners have loved this home since the 1980s and are reluctantly moving on having made many happy memories. They will miss their home, the sensational sea views, the sunny warm home and the abundant native birdlife. Mostly they will miss a wonderful vibrant neighbourhood, very friendly, welcoming and supportive.

You will feel very welcome in your new home.
