66 Clyde Road, Fendalton, Christchurch City, Canterbury

A rare opportunity awaits as this commanding property comes to market for the first time in over half a century. Cherished by the same family since 1971, it is a distinguished residence sitting proudly on a manicured 1,593 m² section, offering exceptional potential for the discerning buyer to enhance, restore, or explore development possibilities under the recent medium residential zoning.

Designed circa 1941 by noted architect Wilford Melville Lawry, the home remains remarkably well preserved, showcasing elegant period detailing and timeless character. Over the years, thoughtful additions have complemented the original design while ensuring modern functionality. The original double garage was skilfully converted into a billiard room, and is now a versatile additional living space. In the mid-1990s, a separate three-car garage with storeroom was seamlessly integrated in a sympathetic architectural style together with a conservatory to enhance indoor/outdoor living

Inside, the two-level residence displays charm and grace. A formal entrance leads into a grand traditional lounge, connected by glazed doors to a richly wood-panelled dining room and adjoining sunroom. The kitchen and laundry, while serviceable, offer exciting scope for contemporary redesign.

Upstairs, three well-proportioned bedrooms include a particularly spacious master. A family bathroom and separate toilet complete this level, both presenting opportunities for thoughtful modernisation in keeping with the home’s heritage.

Perfectly positioned in an exceptionally convenient location, the property offers close proximity to an array of local amenities including educational facilities . It is zoned for Christchurch Girl’s and Christchurch Boy’s High schools and situated directly opposite the Canterbury University Campus.

With its distinguished history, grand proportions, and beautiful setting, this property stands as a rare offering—one where timeless design meets future potential.
