1800s landmark Christchurch house looking for new owners

The property has an enviable location opposite the park and close to key schools.

Sun streams into the north-facing sunroom, which maximises the leafy outlook.

There are two sitting rooms, one study and five bedrooms.

The house reflects a designer’s eye.

The current owner, who restored the house, opted for a long, galley-style kitchen in the family living area, which opens to a courtyard.

White blinds rather than traditional curtains keep the look sleek and uncluttered.

A heated pool, spa, outdoor fireplace and alfresco dining area are features of the rear courtyard.
