This landmark character bungalow, built in 1909, superbly reflects its vintage with its vocabulary of exposed rafters, leadlight adornments, high stud, bay windows and native timbers. Not only has it thrived wonderfully in its original form, the home embraces a range of modern comforts to heighten your living experience. Set on an impressive 2728sqm (more or less), the section enjoys flat lawns, landscaped gardens and stunning elevated views of the Waikato River and surrounding city scape.
Capturing the romance of yesteryear with a fine array of original features and period detailing, the 345sqm (more or less) bungalow emanates a warm sense of character while encompassing a layout that promotes a spacious, relaxed living experience, well suited to entertaining. Practicality shakes hands with elegance in the most delightful way, providing versatile light filled spaces, opening to a large covered veranda and sun dappled courtyard overlooking the ebbs and flows of the Waikato River.
The kitchen forms the hub of the home, socially positioned, it flows easily to covered outdoor entertaining areas including an outdoor fireplace and BBQ.
