History, Heart and Sustainability
Lovingly renovated throughout, this 1950's 3 bedroom weatherboard home retains its original character while embracing a considered approach to modern living.

Repurposed Matai weatherboards have been transformed into beautiful floorboards, while the original rimu kitchen cabinetry remains, with an addition salvaged from Stratford School, brings a rich sense of history and craftsmanship to the heart of the home. Here, the old hasn't been discarded, but thoughtfully reimagined.

Thoughtful improvements throughout include updated plumbing, upgraded electricals, HRV ventilation and a partially replaced roof completed approximately 10 years ago as part of an extension. A carport provides convenient off-street parking, while welcoming touches, such as automatic entrance lighting, add practicality to everyday life.

The open-plan kitchen, living and dining area flows seamlessly onto an extensive deck, creating a natural extension of the home and an inviting space to gather, share meals and enjoy time with family and friends. With a mountain view, it's an especially lovely spot to slow down, take in the scenery and enjoy the changing light throughout the day.

Outside, the generous backyard reflects the owners' appreciation for sustainable living. An established and wonderfully productive garden features an abundance of fruit trees, including lemon, pear, fig, orange, feijoa, guava, apple and grapefruit, mandarin, lemonade and plum alongside grapevines. It's a place to grow, harvest and enjoy homegrown produce, with the changing seasons bringing something new to appreciate.

Backing directly onto the Huatoki Walkway, the property enjoys a special connection to the outdoors, offering the opportunity to explore the surrounding green spaces on foot and enjoy a lifestyle closely connected to nature.

Downstairs, extensive storage provides valuable space to keep things organised, complemented by a ground moisture barrier for added practicality. The laundry is conveniently positioned for easy access to the clothesline, making everyday routines simple and keeping the pleasures of fresh-air drying close at hand.

A home with character, purpose and a wonderfully grounded sense of place, where sustainability is woven into the story, history is treasured, and thoughtful details make it feel like home.
