Dramatically upgraded and masterfully modernised, this spacious 1930s residence is a study in transitional period style, fusing timeless design with contemporary convenience.
No detail was overlooked during the comprehensive renovation process, with much of the property presented in brand-new condition. Elegant reminders of the past, including ceiling roses, traditional cornices and a delightful entrance porch, were thoughtfully retained to provide the best of both worlds.
Logically arranged across two floors, there are accommodation options ideally on each, with the grand master suite occupying the ground floor and featuring a walk-through wardrobe, an exquisite ensuite and immediate access outdoors. A second bedroom is also placed downstairs and could easily become a media room or study depending on your living requirements. A combined laundry and powder room support the ground floor, while a family bathroom and two expansive bedrooms are positioned upstairs.
The superbly appointed kitchen and dining zone are beautifully configured, opening effortlessly to the entertainer’s deck while also stepping through to a cosy lounge which is warmed by a heat pump and pellet fire. In addition to brand-new double glazing, the home also includes a second heat pump, extensive insulation and under-tile heating in both bathrooms for complete comfort.
Fully fenced and secured by electric gates, the property also contains a double garage and a freshly laid lawn.
Accessed from the corner of tree-lined Dormer Street, the home is remarkably quiet considering its central situation, which is exceptionally convenient to both Papanui and Merivale. Families will benefit from an outstanding list of in-zone schooling options, with Paparoa School, Heaton Intermediate, Christchurch Boys’ and Girls’ high schools covering every educational need.
Our vendors have lavished their attention on transforming this magnificent home which you could soon call your own.
