Description
Designed by the renowned architectural partnership Pascoe & Hall, this striking L-shaped residence was iconic when it was first unveiled in the 1940s, and it remains so today. Officially recorded as Project No. 223 and signed off by Humphrey Hall on 14 May 1947, this is a home of genuine architectural pedigree.
Held by only a select number of owners, each has cherished its character and presence. Our vendors are no exception; however, their decision is firm, and opportunities like this are rarely available for long.
While thoughtfully modernized over the decades, the integrity of the original design remains unmistakable. The home's strong mid-century bones and enduring appeal are as evident today as they were nearly 80 years ago.
Multiple spacious open-plan living areas flow seamlessly out to a sheltered deck-an idyllic spot to relax and enjoy intimate city views, protected from prevailing winds and bathed in evening sun. The main living area connects to the original sunroom/ study. At the heart of the home sits a superb modern kitchen, perfectly suited to a residence of this calibre.
Downstairs offers a generous double bedroom with garden views, a single bedroom, and updated family bathroom. Upstairs, two further double bedrooms include a master suite with ensuite.
Comfort is assured year-round with a log fire & two heat pumps. Three-car garaging, extensive off-street parking, and a fully fenced 865m² section offer privacy and tranquillity.
Zoned for Cashmere High, ChCh South Intermediate, Te KuraThorrington, St Peter's Schools.
A rare opportunity to secure a true architectural classic.
Auction: To be held from 11am, 5th March 2026 at Ray White City Office, 76 Hereford Street, City Centre, Christchurch (unless sold prior)
