Deadline Sale 1pm Tue 13 May 2025 (unless sold prior)
Families will love this idyllic private setting just beyond West Melton township. Sitting only five minutes from the township's schooling, supermarket, medical centre and local dining; the property is also a convenient short drive to either Rolleston or the shopping hubs of Riccarton and Hornby.
This 1.1-hectare holding with its flowering cherry tree lined drive offers a great option for those wanting a smaller lifestyle property. The well-designed layout includes a superbly sheltered single paddock ideal for hobby farming, a pony, pets or room to build your dream shed.
Constructed from recycled brick and shaped over two storeys, the home reflects its name with genuine character, featuring leadlights, exposed beams, bay windows and internal brickwork while still leaving room for buyers wanting to refresh or rework in time.
The kitchen merges with the dining area and conservatory, warmed by another fire and extending directly to the outdoors, where a semi-wraparound verandah is positioned for sun, shelter, and uninterrupted views over the grounds. Living areas include the sunken lounge centred around a log burner and a second versatile sitting room with room for a piano.
Of the accommodation, the ground floor holds two bedrooms, with the master offering garden access, a walk-in robe and a private ensuite. Practical needs are met by a separate toilet, a family bathroom and laundry, while above the garage, a third bedroom and full-scale rumpus room deliver well-considered separation, suited to guests, teenagers, or those seeking a work-from-home retreat.
The internal access three-car garage with its workbench provides ample space for projects, while a security system ensures total peace of mind.
