Old-world charm meets modern opportunity in this classic 1950's family home - proudly held by the current owner for over 30 years. Nestled in one of Christchurch's most sought-after locations, properties like this are rarely offered to the market, especially in the zone of some of the city's top schools.

From the moment you step inside, you're transported back to the character and warmth of the 50's. The spacious lounge is perfect for family gatherings, seamlessly connecting to a separate dining/family room and a well-appointed kitchen.
