70's Brick and Cedar Cutie

Punching above its weight for features and finesse, this delightful brick and cedar 1970s gem mixes vintage elements with a modern twist. Situated on a corner cross lease site with ample grounds for opportunities galore, the property has a half share in 814 sqm and presents a surprise splash with sparkling in ground pool in its private back yard. This perfect first home situated close to amenities in highly sought-after Westlake Boys' and Westlake Girls' College school zones, will also be mighty appealing for downsizers, professional couples, or a small family.

The diminutive approximate 71 sqm floor plan belies a spacious layout utilising every nook and niche of the two-bedroom home. A sunny open plan lounge and dining area provides ample room to relax and entertain visitors. Throw open the sliders and let the breeze waft through on summer nights after a refreshing swim. The time capsule kitchen is a retro throwback displaying mosaic tiles and is infused with golden light from original tinted glazing. One corner has been enlisted as a small study space or breakfast nook with built in timber bench while a laundry recess in the hall has good space for the appliances. The bathroom includes a shower over the bath and the toilet is handily separate. Two double bedrooms includes the attractively light-filled master with sliders to the courtyard as well. With off street parking, there's a carport with lock up storage for the garden tools and extra toys. The flat, fully fenced section is reassuringly safe to corral children and pets.

A short walk to Countdown supermarket, and close also to motorway ramps or the bus route for those commuting to the city by public transport. Sunnynook Park is nearby for a stretch in the wide-open spaces and Wairau Park's colossal commercial precinct is a few minutes journey by car from home.
