Description
Walk on homes in Lyttelton are another best kept secret in Port. Tucked away in private settings, walk on homes exist at the end of laneways between character homes and in locations you would never think to find. Perfect for those who love a secret hideaway, well away from the bustle of the street.
No.35a Exeter Street is one such delight. Built in the early 1920s and like most homes of the era, extended over time to create a haven for professionals, family and those seeking an easy to keep level site. Here you will find a warm and welcoming cottage styled home that has been lovingly cared for by our current homeowner for more than thirty years.
Inside, the modern kitchen connects effortlessly to the open-plan dining and living space, where natural light filters in and sets the tone for relaxed everyday living. Warmth and comfort are assured year-round thanks to the wood burner and heat pump, creating a cosy retreat no matter the season.
Three well-sized bedrooms with built-in wardrobes are supported by a modern, functional bathroom layout and a convenient external-access laundry. Well-presented as is, the home also offers scope to refresh or personalise further should you wish to make it uniquely your own.
Outdoors, the fully fenced grounds deliver exceptional privacy for the location, with space for children to explore, pets to roam, and gardens to flourish. As the phrase suggests, walk on homes do not provide parking or garaging, but parking on Exeter Street is generous for Lyttelton, and accessibility to the home is easy.
Located within an easy walk to Lyttelton Primary, and oh so close to cafés, bars, entertainment and local amenities, this home promises an easy, connected village lifestyle.
Entry level and well-presented homes in Lyttelton do not last long, so we would recommend viewing early as our homeowner is committed to moving on and ready to negotiate.
No open homes are scheduled, but viewing is by warmly invited by appointment. Contact us via email or text to schedule your private, stress-free viewing.
Home is fully insured, with a property information pack and EQC claim information available after viewing.
