Description
Some homes are updated. This one has been rethought. From the front façade to the final fixture, it has been transformed into a home that feels unmistakably modern, effortlessly functional and ready for living.
Step inside where light moves easily through the ground floor, bouncing across fresh finishes and drawing you into a living space designed that's open yet defined, stylish yet easy to maintain. The lounge, dining and kitchen form a single, cohesive zone where cooking, hosting and unwinding all feel naturally connected. The brand-new kitchen delivers both beauty and practicality, with sleek cabinetry, quality appliances and storage arranged so well that it simply gets out of your way.
Wide sliders open to a sheltered deck and flat lawn - your private pocket for morning coffees, quiet afternoons or easy summer entertaining. The landscaping has been completely renewed, giving you a tidy, low-upkeep outdoor space from day one.
Upstairs, the primary suite is a genuine retreat, elevated among mature greenery and enjoying excellent natural light. Two additional bedrooms offer flexibility for growing families, guests or that work-from-home office many buyers now value. Both bathrooms have been fully redone with contemporary tiling, streamlined fittings and layouts that prioritise comfort and ease.
A separate laundry, internal-access garage, modern exterior cladding, updated joinery and the complete top-to-bottom renovation give this home a level of appeal that's hard to find in this price bracket.
St Albans places you right in the heart of Christchurch convenience. Merivale Mall, cafés, supermarkets and boutique retail lie just minutes away. St Albans Park and local green spaces offer breathing room, while a short commute gets you straight into the CBD. School zones include St Albans School and Heaton Intermediate.
