Set back on a generous 1,483sqm (more or less) rear section, this beautifully renovated 1980s character home offers the perfect blend of privacy, charm, and modern convenience. Surrounded by established native plantings, it feels like a lifestyle retreat while being just minutes from Halswell New World, shops, and local amenities.
The home unfolds across two levels, with a welcoming wraparound veranda setting the tone. Inside, the open-plan kitchen, dining, and living area provides a spacious hub for everyday living and entertaining. A separate sunroom/library offers flexibility as a quiet retreat or second sitting area. The kitchen is light-filled, well-appointed with trusted appliances, a walk-in pantry, and excellent storage, while the dining space flows seamlessly onto a large deck overlooking the tranquil garden and expansive lawns.
Comfort is assured year-round with two heat pumps and new double glazing throughout the ground level, ensuring warmth in the winter and a cool escape during summer.
The ground floor also features a double bedroom, full bathroom, and separate laundry for convenience. Upstairs, three double bedrooms are serviced by a second bathroom, with an additional single room currently fitted out as a walk-in wardrobe - easily adaptable as a nursery or home office.
Adding to its appeal, the property boasts a rare indoor heated swimming pool - perfect for year-round enjoyment. A detached garage with workshop provides excellent storage and space for vehicles, trailers, or hobbies. Hidden within the gardens, a charming playhouse makes this home especially inviting for families.
This is a unique opportunity to secure a private, sun-filled property that offers both lifestyle and location. Homes of this calibre are rarely available in the Halswell market - your early interest is strongly encouraged.
