This Remuera home’s impressive 1183sqm site has loads of potential

Barfoot & Thompson Remuera

This circa 1960’s Remuera home has been lovingly maintained and enjoyed by the same owner for the past fifty-three years. Now a sprightly 97-year-old, he is looking forward to seeing the property, which was once an orchard, passed on to new owners. Nestled on a splendid 1183m² site, this opportunity will hold huge appeal to renovators, landlords or families.

Architecturally designed and solidly built, it is split over two levels with its iconic mid-century design and timeless features creating a blank canvas in which to work from. The interior remains in its original condition with a Scandinavian influence featuring throughout. The main living areas are situated on the first floor and offer elevated sun drenched north facing living with a peek of Rangitoto Island.

The first floor comprises a large kitchen which adjoins a dining room and a separate lounge. A sunny deck off the dining area presents a lovely setting for quiet enjoyment or for al fresco entertaining. A bathroom, a separate toilet and two generous bedrooms complete this level. The ground level offers a further two bedrooms, a bathroom, an additional toilet and a multi-functional office/hobby room creating a myriad of possibilities. Natural gas is connected to the house and hidden in-wall integrated heating panels throughout create a cosy living climate in cooler months.There is a double carport with internal access and a free-standing workshop complete with power for convenience. The sheltered section is dotted with an array of established trees accompanied by birdsong and there is plenty of room to establish a tennis court or to add a pool if desired. Enjoy, create or renovate this generous sunny land parcel or explore new directions (resource consent for a subdivision /additional dwelling has been issued).

This alluring home is located close to the Orakei Basin walkway and Meadowbank School and is also in zone for Remuera Intermediate and Selwyn College. Increasingly rare, these opportunities continue to prove extremely popular in this welcoming family- friendly neighbourhood. Call Dermot “The Unitary Plan Man ® “today to arrange a viewing time.
