Mid Century Architectural - David Brocherie
https://www.propertyfiles.co.nz/619680001
This bespoke home was one of David Brocherie's first pieces of work and being designed as his own personal residence, a great deal of thought and consideration has gone into the layout and functionality. All executed with superb attention to detail and showcasing an inspired and timeless design that transcends fashion and era. Ready for new owners to make their mark and restore the grounds, this mid century masterpiece is needing love.
An interesting series of elements and shapes combine to create a home that is aesthetically appealing, artistically interesting and through a series of large windows and skylights creates pockets of light that add to the sense of creativity. Rimu and Cedar joinery is cleverly featured throughout, adding emotional value for those who appreciate natural organic materials.
At the hub of the home is the open plan kitchen which connects to all spaces creating a social area for family and guests to flow into different zones. The dining room moves seamlessly into the separate lounge, both areas having views of the private grounds. Also on the ground floor is the bedroom wing comprised of three double bedrooms, family bathroom, separate laundry and separate toilet.
Stunning Rimu stairs further anchor the organic character here and lead up to mezzanine floor - a welcome retreat for 'away space' and peace. The master suite is adjacent and has an ensuite and walk in robe.
An 885m2 fully fenced TC2 rear section provides a tranquil sanctuary to return home to with privacy and safety assured. Outdoor veranda's and decks offer the indoor/outdoor flow Kiwi's crave. Set in popular St Albans, within close proximity Merivale and the City making this an enviable place to live.
Auction: To be held from 12pm, 16 December 2021 at Ray White City Office, 76 Hereford Street, City Centre, Christchurch (unless sold prior)
