Property Information

Unique, tranquil and ultimately private, this iconic mid-century home delivers this plus space for all and really must be viewed to be fully appreciated! Spaciously proportioned over two levels and positioned on nearly half an acre the home overlooks protected native bush and is accessed via a small slip road affording privacy from the street. The higher than usual stud height and solid brick and block construction convey a great sense of height, space, timelessness, and permanence. Built to last in the late 60's by the current owner's builder husband who shipped in Canadian Oregon for the supporting beams and laid beautiful heart rimu flooring throughout the upper level of this truly special home.

The living spills to several outdoor spaces offering options to entertain, relax and unwind. A very private inner courtyard garden captures the morning sun while supremely private wrap around decks accessed from both upstairs living areas connect the house to the grounds, its generous lawns and established native forest beyond. The upper level of the home can be accessed via the courtyard garden entrance. Here there are 3 double bedrooms, family bathroom with wet room shower, lounge/music room and adjoining 2nd living or formal dining room. The lower level offers great separation and the potential for mortgage relief as it is perfectly set up for extended family living, or to accommodate extras with its separate and internal access, 2 double bedrooms, central living room and kitchenette with outdoor flow, plus bathroom and separate laundry.

Whilst perfectly liveable as is this will have huge appeal for those who will appreciate the undeniable potential to add value, the magical setting with its pristine bush, absolute privacy, prolific bird life, and the fact that here there is space to accommodate everyone.

Priced to sell - our vendor bids a fond farewell and is ready to hand over to the next family that will call this special place home.
