10 Finlay Place Woolston, Christchurch City

This tastefully refurbished and updated home exudes charm and character, with loads of interesting nooks and crannies to explore both inside and out. Classic architecture combines with contemporary dcor for a unique look that's crisp and fresh.

The open-plan living, dining and kitchen area is spacious and attractive, with a central log burner that easily heats the whole home. Polished wood floors in the kitchen and a gorgeous chunky real wood bench top create a warm, natural look. A full height pantry, and quality stainless steel appliances add modern convenience.

Upstairs three bedrooms and the bathroom all feature polished wood floors. The bathroom has been remodeled with real Kiwi flair, and has a full-sized bath with shower above. Perhaps the icing on the cake here is a one-bedroom studio/sleepout with its own bathroom at the rear of the property. If there's more room here than you need for the family, there's even scope to add to your income with a tenant.

The 637m2 property has been well divided with front and back gardens and a paved, partially covered barbecue and spa area with its own built-in gas barbecue adjoining the house. Mature trees and shrubs are attractive and easy care creating a lovely outdoor environment. A single garage with plenty of off-street parking completes the picture. This affordable property will have wide appeal so make an appointment to view sooner rather than later.

Auction: Thursday 24th September 2015, 6:30pm The Atrium, 455 Hagley Avenue, Christchurch (unless sold prior).
