Cheltenham perfection

This Cheltenham family sanctuary showcases a light-filled fusion of classic character and chic contemporary style. It's located in one of the area's most coveted neighbourhoods, just a short, level stroll from the beach. The flat, freehold site has been exquisitely landscaped and enjoys a private and expansive garden oasis at the rear.

The current owners have elevated heritage features with a crisp, modern refresh, with the floorplan incorporating four bedrooms and two living areas. What makes this opportunity even more special is that consents have already been issued for a selection of extension options, both out and up a level. This will turn the already stunning residence into a large-scale seaside masterpiece that can suit buyers at all stages of life.

An ideal aspect means the property is illuminated with natural light and flooded with sun all day. Inside, a bright white wall palette is anchored with oak floors and high ceilings enhance the sense of space. Two bedrooms are located off the entrance hall, along with a large separate lounge overlooking the picturesque streetscape out front.

The living, dining and kitchen space is open-plan, with the family bathroom and remining two bedrooms are located in their own wing off this. One of the bedrooms also enjoys outdoor access.

The inside flows out to the partially covered deck and tranquil garden oasis, which savour a wonderful sense of privacy. Flat lawns are enveloped within mature hedges and trees, creating a sunny, sheltered and incredibly peaceful microclimate.

Cheltenham beach is just one street over and the Vauxhall Road shops, Devonport Domain, Waitemata Golf Club and the Devonport village and ferry are all within walking distance.

The enticing proportions, location and consents issued here makes this an extraordinary opportunity for buyers who covet the Cheltenham lifestyle.
