QUINTESSENTIALLY KIWI - GLENDOWIE GEM!
Some homes simply feel right.
Solid, substantial and full of character, this offering is the kind of quintessential Kiwi family home we've all grown up admiring - only now, it's been thoughtfully reimagined for modern living.
Behind its dapper brick facade and distinctive metal fretwork balcony lies an impressive 228sqm of internal living, boasting five bedrooms, three bathrooms and two generous but separate living spaces spread across a highly versatile layout.
The heart of the home has been beautifully brought into the modern day, with a fully modernised kitchen and bathrooms providing the contemporary comfort families expect, while original character remains firmly intact. Solid timber floors, generous rooms and timeless architectural details give the home a warmth and personality that new builds simply can't replicate.
And there's room to live. The main living area opens effortlessly onto a west-facing balcony, creating a wonderful connection to the outdoors and capturing that beautiful afternoon light and evening glow. Downstairs, the second living area is where things get really interesting. Cinema room? Absolutely. Teenage retreat? Perfect. Man cave? Naturally. Or simply a second entertaining zone with its own fully decked outdoor area, ready for summer BBQs, drinks with friends or somewhere for the kids to escape to. Did we also mention solar energy ready to go too? Efficiency and sustainability ticked.
Outside, the 400sqm+ freehold section delivers something increasingly precious - genuine, private outdoor space. There's still a proper grassed front yard, established trees and mature hedging, giving the home a sense of privacy, greenery and permanence.
And the location? This is Glendowie at its best. Set on a safe, premium street surrounded by beautiful family homes, you're practically at the end of the street from Glendowie College - close enough to make the school run effortless with a stone-throw's walk away to campus.
The highlights:
• 228sqm (approx.) of generous internal living
• Five bedrooms, one study and three bathrooms
• Two substantial living areas
• Fully modernised kitchen and bathrooms
