60 Allen Street, Methven, Ashburton, Canterbury

Some homes just sit right with you - the proportions, the light, the vibe. This beautifully maintained home does exactly that. Rich in character yet modern where it matters, it offers an easy, comfortable way of living in one of Methven’s most appealing pockets.

The open-plan kitchen, dining and lounge instantly set the tone for the home: warm and wonderfully welcoming. Heritage detailing and a generous space creates a calm, grounded feel, while the modern kitchen adds practicality with gas cooking, excellent storage and easy flow for entertaining. The living zone is kept perfectly comfortable year-round with a log burner and a heat pump.

Two spacious bedrooms sit quietly down the hall, each with excellent natural light and restful outlooks. The master enjoys its own heat pump. A modern family bathroom and well-appointed laundry support everyday life with ease.

Outdoors, the covered rear deck is a standout - private, sheltered and beautifully placed to capture views of Mt Hutt. It’s the kind of spot that extends your living year-round: morning coffees in your slippers, long summer lunches and quiet evenings watching the mountain turn pink at dusk. Raised garden beds, tidy lawn and established borders add charm and practicality, with enough space to potter, plant or relax.

The savvy buyer will also appreciate the flexibility here. The front entrance presents an exciting opportunity to convert into a home office, studio or even a third bedroom, depending on your needs (subject to relevant building permit and consents).

With a single carport, great storage, two heat pumps, a log burner and a highly walkable location close to Methven’s cafés, shops and amenities, this home is an exceptional find for downsizers, first-home buyers, investors or anyone wanting a lifestyle that’s equal parts charm and comfort.
