33 Hewitts Road, Merivale, Christchurch City, Canterbury

Set in the ever-popular Hewitts Road, this Merivale residence enjoys an exceptional city-fringe position just moments from Hagley Park and the CBD. Zoned for Christchurch’s most sought-after schools—including Christchurch Boys’ and Girls’ High, Burnside High, Elmwood Primary, and Heaton Intermediate—and within easy reach of Rangi Ruru and St Margaret’s College, the location alone sets this home apart. Tucked away from the street, it offers a surprising sense of privacy and space rarely found this close to the city.

Retaining its original 1970s character and complemented by a 2005 extension, the home spans approximately 170 m². The layout is practical and well considered, with three generous bedrooms—one on the ground floor and two upstairs—along with a separate laundry, bathroom, and toilet on the lower level.

The kitchen overlooks a private garden and connects seamlessly with the dining and lounge areas, where sliding doors open to a sunny north-facing courtyard—ideal for relaxed living and entertaining. A versatile additional room provides flexibility as a home office, second living space, or hobby room.

Upstairs, the home’s 1970s charm is on full display, with two spacious bedrooms, including one featuring a bay window and substantial walk-in robe. A separate shower room, bathroom, and toilet on this level offer clear scope for modernisation and value-add.

A comprehensive Property Pack is available, including a current LIM, Building Report, and Engineer’s Report, giving buyers clarity and confidence. Fully insured and offered in its current condition, this is a genuine opportunity to re-imagine a classic city-fringe home.

Double garaging, additional off-street parking, and a prime Blue Chip location—surrounded by quality, sought-after homes and just a short stroll through Hagley Park to the city—complete this exceptional offering. Combining location, character, and so much potential, the property presents enduring appeal for families and astute buyers alike.
