This home’s striking views will make you want to dine alfresco every night

Nestled into a private, sheltered site on the Cashmere Hills and boasting picturesque views across the city, it’s little wonder this expansive property has been tightly held for 21 years. But having reached the decision to downsize, the opportunity has arisen for a new family to call this unique home their own.

This substantial 1960’s home is spread over two levels and enjoys the convenience of living areas on either floor. The spacious open plan area is situated downstairs while a second large lounge on the upper level could be used as an alternative area for relaxation or for teenagers who desire a separate living space.

Ideally arranged to embrace the outdoors, you can entertain or simply appreciate the outlook from one of the numerous balconies, or perhaps unwind to the sound of birdsong from the paved patio which overlooks the flat lawn and established garden while being sheltered from the easterly wind.

Ample accommodation is offered by four double bedrooms and two other office/study or rumpus room options, with a dedicated laundry, two toilets and two bathrooms providing further convenience for busy families.

There is also a four-car garage and a large workshop which offers abundant storage space to hobbyists or car enthusiasts and boasts internal access directly to the kitchen and main living area.

The uniquely appealing interior has been redecorated and combines a neutral palette with splashes of bold colour while retaining elements of the original decor including the statement sweeping staircase and glass brick feature wall.

Whether you’re seeking recreation or education, this home is located perfectly for both. Zoning for Cashmere Primary School and Cashmere High School covers educational requirements while proximity to Cashmere Tennis Club, Victoria Park, the Sign of the Takahe, Pioneer Sports Centre as well as the Cracroft Reserve and many other recreation areas means you will have many leisure options close to home.

Don’t miss this opportunity to secure a substantial family home in this superb location.
