Large-Scale Luxury And Character In Milford
This perfectly-positioned property is a celebration of heritage charm and spacious family living right at the heart of Milford. The beautifully-renovated 1920s bungalow offers five bedrooms and two bathrooms, enveloped within 809m2 of flat, well-established grounds. Milford's beach, shops, eateries and excellent schools are within an easy walk from home, with handy motorway access a bonus for commuters.
The weatherboard home's charming front porch and elegant period features have been retained and restored during renovations over the years. Lovers of heritage design will appreciate the ornate ceiling roses, alcove detailing, stained glass windows and rich Matai flooring inside, which have been modernised with a stylish, contemporary colour scheme and updated fittings and finishes.
An ideal aspect floods the property with great sun all day, while the mature hedges and fencing ensure an excellent sense of privacy. The entrance hall offers the master with ensuite, three bedrooms, main bathroom and powder room. The fifth bedroom (or study) is located out opposite the classic chef's kitchen, which features an oversized Ilve oven, timber benches and good storage. The grand, open-plan lounge and dining space has a wood fire and flows out through bifolds to the sunny deck. Steps lead down to the flat lawn, terrace and outdoor fire area, which has plans drawn up for a pool.
Grounds are a haven for native birdlife and feature mature Kauri, Totara and Rimu trees. Enclosed behind the front gate, kids are able to roam safely and have a choice of areas to play in, including the separate playhouse. Plenty of off-street parking complements the separate garage.
Finding such a large property so close to Milford village is a rare prospect indeed. The current owners have lived here for the past seven years and have loved the space, character and exceptional location for raising their four children. They're moving on within the area, making this captivating estate available for its next fortunate family.
