About this property
Land, Location, Long-Term Appeal Character sets the tone at this city-edge address, where a full-sized section zoned MRZ land (Medium Density Residential Zone) and sought-after schooling elevate the opportunity. Beyond its classic street presence, the layout balances personality with potential, offering an inviting snug at the entrance that conveniently doubles as an intimate second living space. Everyday life naturally finds its place around the open-plan kitchen and dining room, while the spacious lounge extends its reach through a leadlight door to the covered deck, giving entertaining room to move. Accommodation is both practical and adaptable, with two double bedrooms joined by a single that's well placed as a nursery or home office, while a combined bathroom and laundry keep day-to-day routines streamlined and straightforward. A heat pump provides year-round comfort, the tandem internal-access garage delivers secure parking for two vehicles or the flexibility of additional storage, and while the decor steps forward with individuality, there is clear scope to enhance with modern updates at your own pace. The 607sqm section offers a full-scale canvas, with fully fenced front and rear gardens providing plenty of room for children, pets or future plans, while a garden shed adds another practical touch. Everyday convenience continues beyond the boundary, with Bradford Park close by, The Colombo just minutes away, and the CBD reached in around ten minutes. Zoning for Christchurch South Intermediate and Cashmere High School further strengthens the location's long-term credentials. Equally suited to first-home buyers, investors, smaller families or those seeking a well-connected address with room to evolve, this is a character home that offers far more than first impressions. Being loved for over 40 years, our vendor is ready to downsize and welcome its new owners.
