NB: Classified Category 1 under Te Kaunihera O Te Tairawhiti - Gisborne District Council as of 12 September 2023.

The Bird House holds a very special place in my heart because it's the house my grandparents built. Their surname was Bird, and they wanted a quiet sanctuary to enjoy the wildlife that they shared their name and the riverbanks with. There is no better vantage point than from the conservatory at 4 Cobden Street, overlooking the Taruheru...

This property offers all 4 elements. Earthy timbers; airy spaces; the warmth of a heat pump and wood burning fire; and of course the water views. The 135sqm, cedar clad two-storey home offers all the charm and warmth you could hope for in a family home. The galley kitchen and combined dining area make it easy to cook and dine together. The separate toilet prevents queues at the bathroom door, and the walk through laundry makes light work of household cleaning. The focal points of the home, however, are the vaulted ceilings and exposed beams in the spacious living room, with stunning river views through the wide ranch slider and conservatory. Two bedrooms round out the first floor. A lovingly crafted rimu staircase leads to the final bedroom, complete with a large dormer window that showcases what I think is the best view in the place!

Boasting a brand new roof, fresh paint inside and out, and new carpet and vinyl, this recent revitalisation has recaptured the love and comfort I remember. Now this home is ready for a new family to move in and enjoy making their own lasting memories. Situated in a convenient location handy to the Botanical Gardens and Ballance Street Village in one direction, and the CBD and city beaches in the other, the superb location coupled with the quiet and privacy is not to be missed!

So, after decades of this home being in my family, it's now time for your family to enjoy the magic on offer here...
