This stunning, 240sqm executive home designed by architect Andrew Barclay in 1991 has recently undergone a massive, contemporary makeover ensuring it meets current day standards in warmth, style and an easy-care lifestyle. Positioned in a small, tranquil cul-de-sac on the cusp of Fendalton and Ilam, the sought after location allows close proximity to popular schools and shopping centres plus a myriad of parks and recreational facilities. The beautifully landscaped, yet low maintenance 615sqm grounds with a heated, in-ground pool and sauna promote the sunny and sheltered north-west aspect. Those who love to entertain will be seduced by the covered outdoor area with gas fire - not only do the new Louvre and weather blinds permit year round entertaining they ensure this area forms a natural extension of the living and dining rooms. The spacious, well-appointed and thoroughly modern kitchen flows to the dining and outdoors allowing easy supervision of activity in the swimming pool. A large, adjacent laundry doubles as further storage for the kitchen and is the next best thing to a scullery. Naturally, the expansive living room connects to the dining, a separate courtyard and the pool area. Comprising three bedrooms, the main bedroom with a large, fully appointed en-suite with dual vanities, walk-in-robe and a personal sitting area is downstairs. Upstairs; the two further double bedrooms flow from a wide landing appointed as an office, and feature access to the balcony. Other improvements include double-glazing and new heat pumps along with a gorgeous decor and Bose sound system. Double garage with internal access and plenty of off-street parking. Currently zoned Christchurch Boys High, Burnside High, Cobham Int and Fendalton Primary schools, Christchurch Girls High School will be in zone 2018.
