Bursting with charisma and story-book appeal, this character home has gracefully preserved the charm of its era, while bolstered by contemporary enhancements and surprising versatility.

The inviting return verandah welcomes you beyond the front red door and into a world of timeless cottage appeal, that is complemented by the refined and sophisticated interiors.

A modern combined kitchen and dining room anchors the home and overlooks the private decking and elevated alfresco setting. This provides a prime and idyllic haven for relaxing or socialising, with the prized north-west position capturing wonderful end of day sun too.

The separate living room provides a peaceful breakaway space, with the central hallway leading to two generously sized bedrooms that are served by a fresh modern bathroom, with the added luxury of underfloor heating. Seasonal comfort is assured by a heat pump and luxurious soft furnishings.

Outdoors, you will also find a hidden treasure of the independent studio room, which offers a flexible space that is yours to shape - complemented by an adjoining outdoor shower perfect for after beach activities.

With both the vibrant Ahuriri village and city centre in easy strolling distance plus preferred school zone options, local swimming beach and the Marine Parade in walking proximity too - this beautifully appointed gem sits in the best of both worlds.

This home presents immediate comfort and embraces first steps to new beginnings, and Airbnb or investment potential too ensuring lasting appeal and value.

This is more than just beauty and charm - it is a story waiting to be lived. Fully furnished option is available.
