Description
Removed from the street yet close to every convenience, this elegant four-bedroom, three-bathroom residence offers a rare blend of privacy, sophistication, and space. Built in 2000 and beautifully maintained and enhanced over the years, it delivers a timeless lifestyle for discerning buyers.
Light-filled and inviting, the open-plan kitchen and dining area - upgraded in 2017 - forms the heart of the home. Seamless flow to the patio with electronic louvres ensures effortless entertaining and year-round enjoyment. A separate formal lounge, featuring a gas fireplace and built-in cabinetry, provides a warm and refined retreat.
A generous ground-floor bedroom, complete with an en-suite and garden access, offers flexibility as a potential master suite or a comfortable guest space. Upstairs, there are three double bedrooms, including one with an en-suite and walk-in wardrobe, complemented by a well-appointed family bathroom.
Modern comforts include a guest powder room, generous storage facilities both upstairs and down, double glazing, three heat pumps, upgraded insulation, plantation shutters, a large separate laundry, and an internal-access double garage. The established garden enhances the sense of privacy and provides a tranquil backdrop to daily living.
Zoned for Christchurch Girls' and Boys' High Schools and within easy reach of Canterbury University and Medbury School, this home sits confidently in one of the city's most sought-after locations.
The owners have their heart set on a country lifestyle. For those who value space, discretion, and quality, this home represents an exceptional opportunity and will be sold. Contact me today for open home times or a private viewing.
