Character charm, modern comfort & smart upgrades

Step inside this beautifully updated home in the heart of Featherston and you'll immediately feel the difference. Originally relocated to this generous site in 2007, the property has undergone extensive renovations and thoughtful improvements, creating a warm, energy-efficient and future-proofed home you'll be proud to own. The interior offers fresh, contemporary spaces thanks to a new kitchen featuring premium Dekton benchtops, high end appliances and scullery, the kitchen also seamlessly flows through to the covered, outside entertaining area. The bathroom and laundry were fully renovated in 2017 and the bathroom has a great rustic charm. There has also been a new roof fitted in 2022 and added attic storage is a great extra touch. The home has a great open plan feel and the kitchen flooring has been re-laid, a fireplace fitted, new carpet laid throughout, and all southern windows and the back door have been double glazed for extra warmth and quiet. Behind the scenes, the home benefits from mammoth acoustic insulation in the living, hallway and bedroom walls, plus insulation in the roof, underfloor and all external walls that had been opened up during the renovations for year-round comfort. An 8.2 kW grid-connected solar system with an 8 kW inverter powers the home, complemented by a 32A car charger that cleverly uses excess solar power rather than sending it back to the grid, and a hot water timer aligned with the solar system for maximum efficiency. Outside, a 4,000 L rainwater tank with pump makes watering easy, the water system to the house has a three-cartridge water filtration system delivering cleaner, better-tasting water every day. Peace of mind has been built in with the whole house rewired across two renovations and separate alarm systems for the house and garage, ideal for securing the garage at night while keeping the home comfortable. All major building work was completed by Maple Build, with Code Compliance issued in March 2023, ensuring everything meets today's standards. This home combines thoughtful craftsmanship and hidden upgrades to deliver a level of quality and efficiency rarely found in Featherston. Only a minutes walk to the train station and a few minutes more to local, schools, cafes, restaurants and super market. Don't miss out, call us today for more information.
