Sitting high & handsome this 1920s California bungalow is packed full of charm and character with a traditional layout which really lets the period features come to the forefront. With rich glowing timber floors, leadlights and panelling throughout the fabulous high-beamed ceilings really give this grand old dame a touch of class & grandeur and make this a special family home to be appreciated.
The elevated classic period front verandah catches the morning sun opening up to the large hallway with the three double bedrooms & the master with its classic bay window giving you a view up to the iconic Mount Wellington. At the end of the hallway, an extensive kitchen and integrated dining leads you out to the sun-soaked north-west facing backyard area with your own fruit tree for shade and privacy. There are also ample storage and parking options.
Resting on a large flat 555m2 freehold site and in a location where growth is constant there may be plenty of future opportunities for reconfiguration with the option of maximising the living areas and the indoor/outdoor flow to create your own urban family retreat. The current owners have made the smart move to re-roof and have also added heat pumps and an air purifying system for year-round comfort. You may also want to explore (subject to council approval) the possible future development potential with the current council zoning being Mixed Housing Urban.
Location & convenience are also assured here with the Lunn Ave retail area, Sylvia Park with it's bustling shopping, Panmure transport hub just minutes away and great local schools for the children. For your outdoor amenities, you can also enjoy easy access to Mount Wellington, Panmure Basin, Stonefields heritage trail and the Waitarua reserve.
