Description
This charming cottage, built at the turn of the century, embodies the character of a classic workingman's cottage and is nestled in one of Christchurch's oldest, and fast developing suburbs. With its timeless appeal, this property offers a unique glimpse into the past, while also brimming with future potential.
The cottage features two generous bedrooms, both of which are conveniently accessed from the central hallway. The spacious open-plan living and dining area spans the width of the house, creating a light-filled and airy space perfect for both relaxing and entertaining. Equipped with both a heat pump and a log fire, comfort is ensured year-round. The modernized kitchen flows out to the rear of the property, where you'll find a sunny, private garden. This outdoor oasis is a true highlight, with established fruit trees, a couple of garden sheds, and ample space for growing vegetables or kicking a ball around, ideal for both families and those who enjoy their own slice of nature. The property also offers a full bathroom that conveniently incorporates the laundry, making efficient use of the available space.
Off-street parking for one car completes the package, though with so many attractions within walking distance, you may find that your vehicle rarely leaves its spot. The heart of Addington, with its vibrant selection of restaurants and cafes, is just a short stroll away, as are the expansive grounds of Hagley Park, Christchurch Hospital, and the CBD, all only 10-15 minutes on foot.
This is potentially one of the few remaining workingman's cottages in Addington, offering an exciting opportunity for those with vision. The property is zoned RMD, which opens the door to potential development opportunities, ensuring that while it holds a deep connection to the past, it can be transformed to meet the needs of the future. Whether you are looking to move in and enjoy, renovate, or redevelop, this property offers endless possibilities.
