Description
Auction From 10am, Sat 21 Feb 2026 (unless sold prior) 3 Deans Ave, Chch
With its character-leading qualities, this bungalow excels in craftsmanship, offering a faultless level of finish from first impression to final detail.
Presented with unmistakable pride, the home makes an immediate impression, with its signature character carried through the architecture, interiors and lovingly curated gardens that reflect years of care.
Celebrating the classics, the weatherboard profile is matched inside by wall panelling, timber trims, plantation shutters and bay windows that carry its traditional cues into the present.
The modern shift arrives in the kitchen and dining domain, where a broad skylight casts daylight across the stone surfaces and wooden floors. Enhanced for ease without sacrificing the aesthetic, the kitchen is led by a central island, with a connected scullery and integrated laundry keeping the practical elements contained.
The separate lounge retains its original presence and privacy, showcasing a wood burner for warmth, while two heat pumps extend comfort across the rest of the home.
Three bedrooms shape the accommodation, supported by a clean-lined minimalist bathroom.
Life steps easily outdoors, where a verandah traces the home before giving way to stretches of decking, extensive paving, manicured gardens and tree-framed boundaries, creating defined spaces for unwinding or entertaining, while the generous front lawn is perfectly positioned for play.
Securely fenced and a stroll from in-zone Paparoa Street Primary, this property naturally lends itself as a family home, while its pristine presentation and easy access to Merivale will draw couples and downsizers who value the very best of character and convenience.
