Held within the same family for more than 60 years, this well-loved Avonhead home now presents a rare opportunity for a new chapter. With the children long grown and the grandchildren now living overseas, the owners have made the decision that it is time to pass this cherished property on to its next family.
Positioned in a highly desirable pocket of Avonhead, the home enjoys a stream-lined boundary and close proximity to Avonhead School, while also being currently within zone for Riccarton High School. Opportunities to secure a property in such an established and convenient location are becoming increasingly rare.
Set on a private, tree-lined section, the home offers a peaceful outlook that creates a sense of calm and seclusion. Standing on the balcony, you feel surrounded by mature greenery, providing a level of serenity and privacy seldom found so close to everyday amenities.
The home itself features three bedrooms and has been carefully maintained over the years, with the owners making a number of functional improvements to ensure comfortable living. While the interior would benefit from modern updates and a fresh vision, the solid foundation and layout provide excellent scope for buyers looking to add value and make the home their own.
Additional features include generous off-street parking, established surroundings, and a neighbourhood where many residents have called the area home for decades, contributing to the strong sense of community that Avonhead is known for.
This is a property that will appeal to those with imagination and an eye for potential. Comfortable as it stands today, yet offering plenty of opportunity for enhancement in the future.
The owners have given clear instructions that the property is to be sold, and opportunities like this in Avonhead do not stay available for long. Buyers will quickly recognise the potential on offer here.
