153 Lake Crescent, Hamilton Lake, Hamilton

Offered on the market for the first time

This elegant home sits gracefully on its park-side setting, with a broad vista of the Lake and Innes Common that can never be built out. Designed by former Hamilton architects, Aubrey and Mary de Lisle, this residence, offered on the market for the first time, was built in the 1960s by registered master builder Tom Hodgson for his own family. It has been loved by the family ever since. With its contemporary ambience, this home's distinctive style has not faded with time. Heart rimu joinery and mahogany veneers feature throughout and large windows frame the unique outlook. A flat private garden has views of the Common and lake. There are four bedrooms, two bathrooms, informal and formal living areas and a versatile space downstairs that provides an option for working from home or separate rental income. Sunlight streams into the living area; the perfect spot for watching the day unfold and a ring-side seat of activities at the lake including Hamilton's Balloon festival. Set on a 733m2 site, this property has an ideal, central location; it is just a short walk to Waikato Hospital, the city centre is less than 3 kilometres away and it sits within the Hamilton Boys' and Girls' High school zones. Cleverly designed and tasteful in its form, this home is ready to be treasured by another family.
