166 Quinns Road Shirley, Christchurch City

A great starter home and privately situated up a long driveway sits this very tidy 1950's weatherboard home. The kitchen overlooks the sun-soaked dining area so entertaining or minding the children won't be an issue while preparing meals. An easy flow through to a cosy living room is a great family space with a compliant wood burner to keep you warm in the winter months. Polished Rimu floorboards anchor the character here and create a true ambiance. The updated bathroom is fresh and airy with white tiles and clean lines, while the three bedrooms overlook the beautiful gardens making each space relaxing and restful.

Pretty shrubs and roses frame the front lawn while the North facing paved outdoor entertainment area and aggregate paths lead you around the rest of the property where a vegie planter enables you to grow your own produce. The double garage has been divided into a single garage and insulated studio but could easily be converted back. Despite being in a quiet residential area, from here it's an easy stroll to The Palms and all the entertainment options on offer, nearby schools and also transport hubs make it easy to access all corners of the city.

This has been a much loved family home for the past 17 years but with new plans afoot, it must be sold and early possession is available. Be quick to secure this cutie on Quinns!
