Beaven! This stunning - and substantial (320m2 approx) - home is a wonderful example of mid-century design by renowned architect Peter Beaven and built in 1966. This is design that stands the test of time, with flowing spaces tailor-made for family living and an enchanting sense of connection to leafy gardens on 1,033m2 grounds. Nestled at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, the location is hard to beat. Stroll to L.B. & Co. café, Ray Blank Park, local shops or the university, and enjoy a smorgasbord of other amenities nearby. In the style typical of an architect intent on creating intensely liveable spaces, the living areas face north and flow beautifully, while still allowing enough separation for families to live in harmony. An open-plan kitchen and casual dining space has been modernised and catches both northern and eastern sun. Alongside is a flexible living and/or dining space with a picture window framing a tranquil, leafy view. A short flight of stairs leads down to a beautiful and spacious lounge, opening to outdoor living and with a log-burner for wintertime ambience. Five bedrooms (or four plus office) are well-served by two bathrooms, one with a corner spa bath, and there's a separate laundry plus internal-access garaging. The gardens are magnificent, with meandering lawn and mature trees - a perfect playground for children, a private oasis for outdoor living or a haven (complete with fruit trees, glasshouse, irrigation and chicken coop) for keen gardeners. Desirable school zones include Riccarton High and Ilam Primary School and just a short drive to Bush Inn Centre, Fendalton Mall and a few 100 metres to the university. This is position-perfect for growing families. Don't miss the opportunity to secure a very special home. Contact Mary without delay to view.
