19 Pratt Street, New Brighton, Christchurch City, Canterbury

Between the sea breeze and the slow drift of the Avon River, this recently renovated home sits perfectly between two worlds, coastal calm and riverside serenity. It’s where morning walks can follow the tide or the tree-lined riverbanks and where every day feels more fulfilling than the next.

Perched on a sundrenched section - light filters softly through character windows, illuminating generous living spaces that balance comfort with simplicity. The open-plan kitchen and dining area form a natural hub, modern, functional and open to a private deck that invites you outdoors as easily as it draws the sunlight in.

The living room is relaxed and inviting, with pitched ceilings - offering room for both family gatherings and calm evenings. Four well-proportioned bedrooms provide versatility for growing families, guests or remote work, while the upper-level retreat offers privacy and elevated views, a peaceful escape for reading, creating or unwinding.

The family bathroom features both a bath and shower, complemented by a separate toilet and laundry, keeping life practical and easy. A heat pump ensures year-round comfort and the home’s thoughtful layout makes every corner feel connected yet calm.

Outdoors, the deck steps down to a tidy fenced lawn framed by established trees and raised garden beds, ideal for morning coffee, weekend barbecues or watching children and pets play. There’s also a single garage, with workshop (or storage area) secure off-street parking and low-maintenance landscaping that lets you enjoy your weekends instead of working through them.

Set in a friendly pocket of New Brighton, you’re close to the beach, Schools, He Puna Taimoana Hot Pools and the Avon River trails. The Palms and city centre are just a short drive away.
