LYTTELTON LANDMARK
Likely to have been built in the late 1800s the building has transitioned over time from being an early settler's villa; to becoming more known as the main diary for Lyttelton West; and back into the alluring family home it is today. The English idiom "never judge a book by its cover" holds true for this property. Step inside and you will be pleasantly surprised while exploring everything that makes this house, a family home to treasure for years to come. From the central hallway you will discover four bedrooms; a main bathroom and ensuite bathroom. Toward the rear of the dwelling, the living space is light and bright, with large picture windows and views of the inner harbour you will never tire of. Open concept design is perfect for families and entertaining, with large living, dining and kitchen all together. To the west, a sheltered private patio deck is perfect to enjoy an alfresco evening wine or two. Warmth has been catered for,with the installation of a 16.0kW central radiator heat pump system; a 8kW heat pump; double glazing throughout the upper floor; wall insulation and a hot water cylinder heated via solar panels. Downstairs, the real surprise is the size of the internally accessed double garage (already wired for electric vehicle charging), workshop and storage space. There is off street parking, suitable for more cars, trailers, campervans, or even the boat. The laundry leads directly to the clothesline, and onto the stunning landscaped garden. The garden today is presented with areas of privacy for you to retreat to and enjoy after a busy day. Now available for sale, for the first time in more than twenty-eight years, this is an opportunity to live in not just a well-appointed home; but in a slice of local history.
