3 Terrace Lane, Hospital Hill, Napier

Five plus bedrooms, hilltop character perfection

Oh the tales these walls could tell, if only walls could talk. But what speaks loudest and clearest of all, is the labour of love that has been bestowed upon 3 Terrace Lane, as its resident owners have poured their hearts into transforming the gigantic character-rich exterior, into a home that is thoughtfully renovated, with beautiful spaces, extraordinary flow and offers a rare sense of deep integrity.
It takes a special person (in this case two) to take on the project of working with such expansive spaces, such high studs and deep character features a home of this era presents. Fortunately for this Dame, she landed in the hands of very thoughtful, diligent, and thorough owners, who have completed her transformation with the utmost care.
Each step granted the craftsmanship it deserves, and each detail adding further to the tale of a very special home in a private and premium location.
We'll start on the top level, where the master suite takes prime position, with stunning views of the Kawekas, complete with a walk-in dressing room and ensuite. The peace and quiet, added to by the outlook and natural light make this an undeniably restful space. In addition, a further two rooms complete the top level giving you options for additional bedrooms, extensive storage, office space or private living.
We love the options the lower level delivers. With two additional bedrooms and a gorgeous office, there is ample room for guests and growing families. Claw foot bath and family bathroom can also be found on the lower level topped only by the laundry, which makes the necessary task of washing seem like more of a treat!
Well-proportion kitchen, gas hobs, and walk-in larder meet with a glorious sitting room and fireplace, opening out onto the exceptionally private rear deck, whilst the dining room with ornate fireplace and native timber detailing creates the perfect spot for more formal dining occasions, or a second living space.
A compact yet stunning section, beautifully landscaped and elegantly planted, offers a selection of fruit trees and spaces to picnic, the perfect combination of productive land without the overload of section maintenance.
With off-street parking and integral garaging, all just a short stroll into town, Ahuriri Village and sought-after schools, this Dame is a very special find and is now ready to share her glory with you!
