Architectural gem in the heart of St Johns Hill

Sitting on top of Whanganui in the heart of Saint Johns Hill is this fabulous Eddie Belchamber mid-century original. Having been in the same family for the past 66 years this treasure sits amongst a well-established private garden that will tick all the boxes for those that love peace, tranquility and birdsong. A private driveway leads on to tree lined entrance that gives you a sense of calm on arrival. With views spanning the river, across the city and out to the ocean you will never want to leave this special spot. Stepping through the front door you are greeted with stunning views across the city from the large living room windows that span the entire living room wall. Eddie was generous with the proportions of this home and was incredibly generous with the windows letting natural light and sunshine to flow in at every possible chance throughout the entire home, allowing the beautiful landscape to become a natural artwork. From the entrance you have a study on the left of you which is a good size and could be a second living space or a work from home office as it has doors directly into the garden. The living area has been designed to capture the amazing views across the city to Bastia Hill and beyond, with floor to ceiling windows right across the room. The original fireplace is in working order. Moving through to the dining room you are able to access the deck and back garden. The original kitchen has a built-in table and booth seating making informal dining a breeze. There is an abundance of storage which continues through into the open plan laundry and scullery. Up a few stairs at the end of the hallway you will find the three bedrooms. All three have great storage and are plentiful in size. There is a separate toilet adjacent to the family bathroom. Hallway storage has been thought of and you will find storage not only in the main hallway but also in the entrance hallway. You will find there is a double garage underneath the house which does not have internal access and there is a boat shed which is ideal for those that have a classic car or toys that need housing. This space can also double as a workshop or potting shed for the passionate gardener. Whether you are looking for an original treasure to keep true to it's roots or are wanting a renovation project this home is definitely a rare find you won't want to miss out on.
