Our serious sellers rescued this glorious two storey Victorian Villa and relocated it from the Central City where it was about to meet its demise, but now they are on the move too! It is imperative this gorgeous property is sold forthwith, for a new family to enjoy the results of their hard work. And what a labour of love this has been; a project driven by passion, resulting in a lovingly crafted home restored and modernized, and now ready to endure for the next century!

Full of charm and character, the house is a mixture of original features restored and repurposed, together with carefully replicated replacements. French doors open onto a wraparound verandah, sash windows glide easily, skirtings and architraves are of the era, brass handles gleam and a magnificent Kauri timber banister soars upwards. Wiring, plumbing and ducted central heating are all entirely new, and naturally the house sits on all new solid foundations. The interior is vintage inspired with modern construction. A Farmhouse style kitchen with room for a long family size table has a huge copper rangehood adding drama! Double doors with beautiful reeded glass panes open into the living area and there is a separate lounge as well. A wide hallway leads up the stairs to three bedrooms served by luxurious bathrooms and there are leafy views from most windows.

Situated on a rear 522sqm site, the house is North facing. Outdoor living on the verandah is extended by decking on the North West side, sheltered and sun-drenched. Double garaging has internal access and is drive through for access to the rear garden and the lovely Walnut tree in the corner. For those looking for an abode a little less ordinary, this 'one of a kind' house is charmingly attractive and sure to appeal to buyers of all ages and stages. Located close to both Merivale and Edgeware Villages, these shopping precincts are around fifteen minutes' walk away. If schooling is a priority, the property is in zone for St Albans Primary, Heaton Intermediate and both CBHS and CGHS.

Our sellers have plans to leave for Waiheke Island and the sale of their lovely home is now of the greatest importance.
