The Selbourne Supremacy


Vendors have purchased - This will be sold!

A modern day love story in a beautiful character package, this delightful villa sits on the sunny side of quiet, leafy Selbourne Street and provides for charming, easy living.

Beautifully restored while still retaining many of its traditional features, step inside to original wide native timber floors, stained glass windows and high ceilings with roses that give this home charm, personality and provenance. Add in the stunning light streaming in from the west and you will fall head over heels for this abode.

At the rear is the updated living area, highly functional with seamless carpentry throughout the contemporary kitchen. Entertainers will love hosting around the sleek engineered stone island. The lovely breakfast nook looks out onto the deck and garden beyond for those lazy weekend breakfasts reading the paper as the kids and pets play on the sun soaked lawn or tend to their vege patch.

In summer, set up the BBQ and outdoor dining to take advantage of the afternoon sun, then in winter, retreat to the formal lounge, which also works perfectly as a media room or work from home office and comes complete with original fireplace.

Each of the three bedrooms are nicely-appointed, including the master with stylishly renovated ensuite. A second bathroom ensures no morning rush.

This home is charmed not just in appearance but location too. Stroll up to Grey Lynn or West Lynn Village to grab a coffee at the Sunday farmers market, then head to Grey Lynn Park with the kids.

You'll love the close proximity to Ponsonby and the CBD. Refined and perfectly positioned, with scope to take to the next level by adding a pool (while still retaining a large backyard) - this property is enchantment personified.
