6 St Martins Road St Martins, Christchurch City

All the romantic charm of a classic 1930's home skillfully partnered with a comprehensive and contemporary renovation makes this St Martins home a very desirable and attractive proposition.

From the enclosed, secure entrance, where you can divest yourself of the shopping, coats and family dog, you enter this absolute charmer of a home where the original wood panelling, painted in soft white, amplifies the space and light in this home.

Fire up the wood burner and heat pumps over winter and fling open the French doors to the private grounds at the first hint of spring and enjoy an enormous amount of sun and light year round.

Three bedrooms and two new bathrooms make for good family living, as does the living area, dining area and a spectacular kitchen in a stunning combination of steel, white and black.

The light-filled open plan area opens directly to the outdoor entertaining areas and gardens. A second living area has been cleverly incorporated on the landing, making a perfect reading or media retreat.

With the main bedroom and bathroom downstairs and two bedrooms upstairs, with their own bathroom, this home is effectively future-proofed.

The original craftsmanship has ensured a quality build and the inspired renovation, which has retained the stunning art deco leadlight windows, has added both the practical and the aesthetic enhancements that will delight generations to come.

Internal access double garaging is a real bonus, as are the nearby schools, shops, cafes, parks and the Port Hills and it's a quick commute to the CBD. For the children's education you are spoilt for choice being in-zone for both Beckenham Primary, St Martins and Cashmere High, along with Steiner and Hillview and St Mark's schools all being only a short distance away.

Welcome a new life in this beautiful setting where enjoying a more gracious and gentle pace comes free of charge here at 6 St Martins Road!
