Discover a truly exceptional opportunity to own your own character villa and fully renovated shop, combining charm, history, and modern potential. Situated just moments from the village centre, walking tracks, and local sports grounds, this property invites you to envision both a home and income-generating future..

The 1910 villa, with its character features, provides a warm and inviting home. A formal dining room calls out for candlelit dinners, the lounge which leads to the verandah and private garden, receives afternoon sun, as does a charming sunroom. The kitchen is well equipped with a walk in pantry and modern conveniences. The downstairs bathroom acts as an ensuite to the large downstairs bedroom, while upstairs, with another bathroom and two good-sized bedrooms, embrace views across the nearby domain and sports grounds.

Next door, the 1890s shop has been reborn as a spectacular showcase of craftsmanship and modern ingenuity. Rich in history yet strengthened for the future, the space has been fully earthquake-strengthened, insulated, and double-glazed. Whether you dream of opening a boutique cafe or restaurant, creating a cozy Airbnb retreat, or establishing a stylish office or studio space, this versatile shop offers everything you need. The brand-new commercial kitchen and bathroom make it ready to work for you, while 16 solar panels ensure efficiency, powering the heating, cooling, and even the EV charger.

Completing the property is a brand-new garage. It is more than just a garage as it is insulated, double-glazed, and has infrared heating. A private, low-maintenance garden creates a peaceful oasis at your back door. This truly unique property celebrates the timeless beauty of a bygone era while offering modern flexibility for today. With land and buildings only included in the sale, the vinyl record business will remain with the current owner, allowing you to craft your own vision here.
