AUCTION BROUGHT FORWARD
The mature walnut tree adorning the front garden may well have been planted around the same year this 1913 Kauri weatherboard villa appeared in its local placement. Evoking childhood memories of climbing trees and collecting your annual nutty harvest, so too does an edible banquet of citrus, persimmon, feijoa and stone fruit adorn the lushly fertile landscaped grounds. Cleverly curated by passionate vintage loving owners, many of the endearingly features remain within the interior dovetailing sympathetically with more modern essentials. Heritage wall tones and native timber floors, doors and panelled ceilings join forces with sash and leadlight glazing beneath some 2.7m high stud rooms. The separate living has a cosy log burner with potential wet back connection for saving on water heating. French doors open onto a charming front veranda and similarly extend from the sunlit dining to a covered rear deck inviting open air leisure in sight of meandering red brick pathways and a restful greenscape. The complementary black and tan kitchen socially connects with both indoors and out and of the four bedrooms, placement and proportion of the first may dictate its use be best suited to a nursery nook, cloak room or hobby retreat. The wainscot lined bathroom evokes a timeless touch with claw foot cast iron bath, pedestal basin and solid brass tapware. A freestanding garage includes both store and breakout room at the rear – a favoured hangout for teens or your work-from-home requirements. The six or so minute, single sped cycle for the current owner to central city is a godsend daily commute, not to mention the short walk to Daisy Hardwick from the street end via your neighbourhood walkway. Positioned directly opposite historically significant Judea Redoubt, this exceptionally private colonial love is for those who truly cherish a touch of history staying true to itself, privately encapsulated by an established garden good enough to eat.
