Grand Ole Dame revived and restored

This grand ole dame draws on 114 years of stories. But the best chapter lies ahead when it becomes your cherished villa in the countryside. Located in historic Ōhaeawai Village, this special property turns heads for its impeccable restoration and enchanting grounds.

Resting on 4,047sqm with solid street appeal, the vendors have poured their heart and soul into its renovation - carefully preserving all of the best features of a bygone era, including Kauri flooring, decorative mouldings, new timber joinery and French doors.

The villa is an Edwardian/Victorian-style home built in 1910, but she really is ageless! Superior workmanship has made this three-double-bedroom abode stylish, with modern comforts that are second to none, especially new central heating and maximum insulation throughout.

A new roof and exterior paint set the scene of an elegant home, along with a traditional covered porch that wraps around to the master bedroom. The interior is light-filled, with fresh paint throughout. A deck at the rear of the house is a magnet for sunshine and extends the entertaining footprint with its louvred roof.

The kitchen stays on-point for its era but is a masterpiece for storage and contemporary appliances, with pretty garden views as you work. A spacious lounge with French Doors draws you to the outdoors where decadent lawns, heritage orchards and an enormous potager veggie garden awaits.

Astute buyers will love the finer details here, including a striking bathroom, separate laundry room, separate single garage and a covered carport.

The hard yards are done, and the rewards are endless - from iconic cycle and walking tracks nearby, right down to the swing in the giant Puriri tree! Central to both Kerikeri and Kaikohe and nearby to a quality primary school, the traffic is slowed to 60km for added peace of mind.

Nurturing these beautiful historic homes is what our vendors do best. They have now found their next Grand ole Lady to revive and restore and require a sale to complete the purchase. Call today for the full info pack.
