From the moment you enter this gorgeous home, you will feel welcomed. This Dryden street home is a treasure, often admired by locals and passers-by. Fall in love as the current owners did 18 years ago. They saw the potential and have lovingly completed an amazing renovation, a wonderful mix of old world English Villa meeting modern living a pleasure to behold.
Walk up the garden path, lined with bricks from the Lyttelton Catholic altar and step onto the wide verandah dripping in wisteria, and framed with a delightful formal garden including beautiful white roses and formal box hedging.
Once inside a true feeling of style will encompass you, the grand staircase has been stripped back from layers of paint to reveal the lovely crafted Rimu, the wood feels like satin - smooth and luxurious. The 'front room' is beautiful, bustling with fabric, colour, high ceilings and warmth.
The modern kitchen was the perfect addition to the dining area. The new family living room has large bifolding windows and French doors opening to an outdoor living room. A brilliant space to enjoy your summer either under cover or out on the spacious entertainment deck. The private courtyard will be your favourite place to relax in all seasons and soak in the stunning views of the hills. It is very sunny and sheltered with a great connection to the house.
The upstairs has three well appointed spacious bedrooms, a stylish bathroom and a large enclosed verandah. An ideal viewing place for the hills and the sea, perfect also for a playroom or hobby room, very sunny and warm.
The location is absolutely perfect, a quiet street with great neighbours within the heart of Sumner, so close to the school, swimming pool, kindergarten, and the beach.
Don't miss this home, it is 'FABULOUS'.
