Sitting proudly on its Freehold Title in a quiet Riccarton street, it's part of a neighbourhood where families settle in and stay. Add in the blue-chip school zones of Christchurch Boys' and Christchurch Girls' High Schools, and you've got a location that will always be in demand.

Step through the front door and the sense of possibility is immediate. With the flexibility to configure the home as four bedrooms plus two living areas, or five bedrooms if you need the extra space, it adapts to whatever stage of life you're in. Two bathrooms mean there's no morning rush-hour stress, and generous off-street parking makes life easier for families, flatmates, or visitors.

Recently upgraded with double glazing and set on a secure, fenced section, the home combines comfort with peace of mind - making it as practical as it is appealing.

Character bones meet practical opportunity here - think polished floorboards, weatherboard charm, and a layout that invites your own touch. It's the kind of home where you can start small with updates or go big with a full renovation to bring out its true potential.

For investors, the numbers speak volumes with a rental appraisal of $800-$900 per week. That's a strong return in a sought-after area, making it a smart addition to any portfolio. For first-home buyers, it's a rare chance to secure a classic home in a premium location - one where you can move in straight away, while planning your upgrades over time.

This is more than just a house. It's a chance to create, to add value, and to enjoy a location that offers everything - from school zones and shopping to cafés, parks, and the energy of Riccarton just minutes away.

Homes like this don't come along often. The next chapter is waiting - are you ready to write it?
