51 Hawkesbury Avenue, Merivale, Christchurch City, Canterbury, 8014, New Zealand
The home is orientated perfectly on the north side of this popular street with family living, dining, and kitchen, positioned to flow out to the north. Double garaging and plenty of off-street parking sit appropriately on the street-side and there is internal access for extra convenience. A separate living/TV room is adjacent to the family area and benefits from the central log burner through double doors. A bonus must be a fully lined studio sitting prettily at the bottom of the garden suggesting a multitude of uses. Securely fenced for children and pets we can see this would make a wonderful choice for a family wishing to take advantage of the school zoning including both Girls and Boys High, St Albans, and Heaton Intermediate. Also suitable for couples wishing for an easy walk to Merivale Village and a famous café just down the road, life could be social. The buyers of this charming character bungalow will receive a horticultural bonanza when they take possession here! This is ‘grow your own’ at its best. Fruit trees line the boundary and include Peach, Plum, Nectarine, Cherries, Feijoa, Pear and Apple and bushes of blueberries, gooseberries, and black current are dotted between. The vege patch could fill a market stall and all this leaves plenty of room on 607sqm for lawn, decking and patio for sheltered and sun-drenched outdoor living. Cycleways provide a simple commute in and out of the CBD if work takes you there.
