939A Heaphy Terrace, Fairfield, Hamilton, Waikato, 3214, New Zealand
Heritage character mingles with modern updates at this central Fairfield home. From outside appearances, it’s wow at first sight. The well-presented 1920s bungalow has natural appeal and fabulous yesterday aesthetics – all beautifully preserved, albeit with updates including aluminium joinery and a quality roof. A traditional front porch welcomes guests, and the rear deck opens off both the kitchen and laundry.
Reconfigured living is warm and open plan, with the kitchen, dining and lounge areas flowing sequentially and kept ambient via a heat pump and a ventilation system. The sociable kitchen has a free-standing oven with a gas cooktop and a peninsula counter where kids can snack or do their homework.
Three restful, carpeted bedrooms and a full family bathroom ease off the home’s central hallway. The colour palette throughout is mellow and mood-enhancing, and perks include gas infinity hot water, security cameras and a garden shed.
The 490sqm section is immaculate and low maintenance, with perimeter fencing on three sides and a big concrete forecourt offering oodles of parking.
The location is superbly convenient as so much is in walking distance including Heaphy Terrace and Five Cross Road shops, local cafes and restaurants, Jubilee Park and Claudelands Event Centre. Boundary Road bridge is close and walking or cycling into the CBD is an option.
