An extraordinary restoration has lifted this character home to its finest form, with an uncompromising standard of quality extending from the foundations to the finishing.

This home has been a labour of love in the truest sense, with the vendors taking an exhaustive approach from the ground up. Beyond the piles and foundations came new plumbing and wiring, exceptional insulation and a Viessmann central heating system, with contemporary radiators extending to every room.

Combining gas and solar energy with a 200-litre hot-water cylinder and computerised controls, it brings sophisticated engineering to a distinctly character setting.

That investment behind the walls is matched by the distinction on display. Double glazing extends throughout the home, with triple glazing applied to the leadlights and only the sunroom retaining single glazing.

NZ wool carpet, feature lighting, timber panelling and striking wallpapers are complemented by richly dressed windows, where luxurious fabrics and bespoke hardware carry the craftsmanship into the finer details.

The kitchen makes its own contribution to the craftsmanship, pairing Smeg appliances and Brazilian granite with handmade tiles and high-end tapware, while a broad picture window captures the garden's greenery in all its glory.

A succession of living spaces gives every occasion its own setting, spanning the substantial separate dining room and fireside lounge before a sunroom carries daily life out to the deck.

Design detail extends well beyond the floor plan, with a purpose-designed verandah and pergola creating a sheltered destination for outdoor entertaining. Halswell Quarry stone echoes St Mark's Church next door, while a built-in daybed and vintage American stained glass give the setting individuality of its own.

Three generously proportioned bedrooms retain picturesque character windows, while the family bathroom returns to tradition with a freestanding claw-foot bath alongside a modern shower.

Insulated and lined, the double garage is currently configured for one vehicle alongside a dedicated hobby area, with a separate studio room at the rear creating considerable flexibility, including potential for conversion to additional accommodation, while an electric gate secures generous off-street parking to complete the package.

Established landscaping sets the scene, with statement specimen trees lending scale, privacy and a natural drawcard for native birdlife.

Its location has the neighbourly charm to match, with a strong sense of community and Opawa School zoning putting family priorities firmly in place, adding the final credentials to a home of exceptional quality and character.
