2 Le Cascina Lane, Riccarton, Christchurch

City lifestyle by Hagley Park

Enjoy all our city has to offer from this superbly positioned city house, built using a solid concrete construction method, down a little known lane, barely a block from Hagley Park, across from Palazzo Lane, in the Christchurch Boys' and Girls' High school zones and a bike through the Park to Christ's College and Cathedral Grammar. A location to be revered... Surrounded by other prestigious homes, and easy access to all the amenities in Addington, Riccarton and Westfield Mall, Tower Junction, Moorhouse Avenue and the City.

An easy care landscaped setting of 341sqm, with courtyards both front and rear, means you won't need to spend the whole weekend in the garden and you can get out and enjoy all that is close... walking the dog, running around the park or breakfast in one of the nearby cafes and restaurants. There's also the bonus of a share in a small reserve, and visitor parking although there is good off-street parking on this property.

The enchanting, extremely welcoming tiled entrance sets the scene for the classic style and functionality this home offers. It really does have the feel of a small Italian villa.

Two living rooms and a separate dining room all have parquet flooring with both living opening to the courtyard gardens through French doors. There's also a conservatory upstairs, perfect for an afternoon siesta.

Kitchen has a double electric oven, gas hob, waste disposal and dishwasher and is decorated with bold blue tiles, and there's a separate laundry.

Four bedrooms, the main with ensuite and WIR. Heating's taken care of with three heat pumps, a gas fire, underfloor heating in the bathrooms and the home is also double glazed. Double internal access garage and off street parking.

A lifestyle to be envied.
