Utterly charming, this solid 1950s bungalow is ready to be elevated into the refined home it was always meant to be. With a classic floor plan and undeniable character, its appeal is evident from the moment you step into the light-filled entrance. Original parquet flooring and a striking skylight guide you through to a generous living room, where wide glazing draws your eye to the sheltered garden beyond.
Well maintained over the years with insulation updated, the home presents an exciting opportunity to further enhance and add value or enjoy it as it is. A thoughtfully designed Ingrid Geldof kitchen (1998) brings Italian influence with its butler's sink, butcher's block and travertine tiles-features that remain both practical and stylish. Designers Guild striped wallpaper adds personality, complemented by timeless timber joinery throughout.
Wide French doors connect the living room to a brick-floored conservatory, which in turn opens to the patio and established garden-creating seamless indoor-outdoor flow. Currently configured as three bedrooms plus a spacious office (easily adapted as a fourth bedroom), the layout is both flexible and functional. The generous master bedroom features two sets of original French doors, enhancing light and garden connection.
Set on 802sqm, the home turns it back on the road with ample off-street parking, two carports and plenty of turning space. Designed on a single level and unfolding to the north, the L-shaped layout shelters outdoor living from the easterly, allowing year-round enjoyment. Borders brim with rhododendrons and roses, while mature boundary trees provide privacy and a tranquil backdrop.
The location is exceptional - moments from Fendalton's popular New World supermarket and the much-loved Bakermans café, Jellie Park Recreation and Sports Centre is just a short walk away, and zoning includes Fendalton Primary, Cobham Intermediate, Christchurch Girls' High School, Christchurch Boys' High School, and Burnside High School.
