41 Douglas Road, Amberley, Hurunui, Canterbury

Some homes just have it - that easy warmth, that lived-in feeling which says you're right where you need to be. This is one of those homes. Tucked in the heart of Amberley in a desirable location and sitting pretty on a generous 929sqm (more or less) section, it's been loved, looked after, and is now ready for its next chapter.

Inside, the layout is made for real life, not just good looks. The lounge is your everyday gathering spot, complete with a toasty wood burner and soft light spilling in through wide windows. Doors open to the garden, perfect for summer, inviting the breeze and sound of kids playing within the established garden and on the spacious lawn.

The kitchen! A total crowd pleaser, featuring timber cabinetry and overlooking the back garden creating a space that brings a sense of farmhouse charm to town living. It flows naturally into the dining area, a sunny, easy space where you can chat, cook, or sip your morning coffee while taking in the greenery outside. Indoor-outdoor flow is easily established, and the covered deck extends your living space allowing for alfresco dining in the summer months or afternoon catch ups with friends.

Down the hall, three comfortable bedrooms give everyone their own slice of calm all complete with built-in wardrobes. The main room is airy and light-filled, while the others work perfectly for kids, guests, or a home office. A spacious bathroom with a separate toilet keeps things practical, and the separate laundry (with backyard access) is ideal for muddy boots.

Adding to the appeal, brand-new flooring runs throughout the home - including wet areas and even the internal-access double garage - giving the property a fresh, modern feel from end to end. A further bonus is the convenience of a heat pump which can be flicked on for heating or cooling so your desired temperature can be reached year-round.

Outside, there's that classic Amberley lifestyle waiting - a fully fenced backyard, room for the dogs to roam, a vege patch, and a garden shed and woodshed. The sealed driveway provides ample off-street parking, and the carport further enhances this space while the mature garden keeps things private, peaceful, and easy.

And the location! Spot on. Amberley School is just across the road, and the domain and swimming pool is just a short stroll away. The heart of Amberley is within close proximity where a range of everyday amenities are located. It's family living with space to grow, or a smart step for first home buyers who value comfort and character in one.
