A Pleasure Inside and Out

Meet the perfect three bedroom, two bathroom, brick and weatherboard linea home, for downsizing without losing out on any space.

It’s nicely tucked up a cobblestone drive among a small enclave of private homes in early Maungatapu, and has the perfect easy-care garden with small lawn for pleasantly pottering. This is a perfect location to enjoy privacy, with easy proximity to city amenities.

At 369sqm (approx.) the site is compact yet includes the sunny front lawn fringed with greenery and shielded by layered trellis, which could be easily be enclosed for pet or child. A new private timber patio off the dining area would work well for outdoor coffee or wine in the shade on hot summers days. From there, the outside flows through a shingle and paver path to a space concealed at the rear of the garage for bins, wall clothes line and garden shed positioned on new rear deck.

Some double glazing has been completed in an upgrade ensuring that cosy atmosphere with heat pump. Parking for extra vehicles on the property is available.

Open the front door and find beyond the foyer a surprisingly spacious interior – light airy open plan living with generous lounge, large master suite, and two more roomy bedrooms plus a good sized second bathroom. You will be only the second owner of this immaculate classically styled home tastefully redecorated a few years ago, which included new carpet and ceramic tiles. It’s in excellent condition throughout.

If retirement for you does not mean a retirement village, then this could be a desirable option, where you maintain full independence in an easy-care property near local shops and within easy reach of the city.
