The Grandest of Character on 632m2!
The exceptionally well located home is being sold for the first time in over 50 years and occupies an iconic corner site in a much-coveted neighbourhood, backing onto Grey Lynn Park. A backstory that famous local band Dragon lived in and wrote some of their songs here in the 1970s imbues additional mystique into walls (if only they could talk!) along with 1916 heritage detailing and dazzling artisan leadlight glass throughout.
Sympathetically renovated over the years, the interior's original native timbers in flooring, wall panelling, ornate architraves and four beautiful fireplaces imbues the home with an enviable solidity and unparalleled craftsmanship. A wide central hallway provides a captivating conduit to living and slumber zones with the separate formal sitting room boasting wainscot panelling, bay window and ornate fireplace. At the rear of the home an open plan dining and family room share the space with a gorgeous timber kitchen featuring black granite benchtops, high-quality stainless-steel appliances and garden bay window with leafy aspect. Steps descend to a colossal deck in the backyard featuring barbecue area, in-ground spa pool, and potting shed amidst lush tropical greenery. The family bathroom serves four bedrooms all comprising of the archetypal high stud with one having a "servant's staircase" connecting to the lower floor recreation den and masses of basement storage. The fully fenced property has a gated vehicular entrance to access ample off-street parking. Considered one of the best pockets in the suburb with Ponsonby and Richmond Road nosheries nearby, school zoning is for Richmond Road School and Ponsonby Intermediate. The 632 sqm (approx.) freehold property is a compelling 10-minute drive to the central city and close to public transport, shops and main arterial routes.
Our vendor's are off to chase the April sun, meaning this park side gem will be sold!
