15 Braithwaite Avenue, Chartwell, Hamilton, Waikato

Tucked away at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, just moments from Days Park and the Waikato River, this 1965 brick home occupies an established 913sqm setting with a wonderful sense of privacy and outlook.

There is plenty to appreciate about the home’s 1960s origins, with generous proportions, warm timber detailing and large windows that draw natural light into the interior. The layout offers four bedrooms, two living areas and a formal dining room, providing an abundance of space for family life.

The kitchen is bright and inviting, with a breakfast bar for casual dining and a charming window nook that catches the sun - an easy spot to sit with a coffee and enjoy a quiet moment.

Perhaps the most memorable space is the sunroom. Wrapped in windows and warmed by its timber detailing, it takes full advantage of the outlook towards the Waikato River, with built-in window seating creating the perfect place to settle in and watch the world go by. The master bedroom also enjoys views towards the river, bringing the outlook into everyday life.

Throughout the home, there are reminders of an era when houses were built with space and individuality in mind. While comfortable and well presented as it stands, there is also exciting scope to enhance and make the property your own over time, working with the character and generous footprint already in place.

Outside, established gardens surround the home, creating a private and peaceful setting that only comes with time. The lawn and outdoor living areas provide plenty of room to enjoy the 913sqm section, while a double garage adds further practicality.

The setting is difficult to replicate. Days Park and its riverside walks are right nearby, while the elevated outlook across the Waikato River gives the home a connection to one of Hamilton’s most beautiful natural features.

A home with character, space and genuine potential, all in a position that has only become more special with time.
