Occupying a treasured 1726sqm parcel of land on an elevated site that has views across nature, roof tops and Hamilton Lake, the property is a rare find. It nestles at the end of a long drive in a peaceful setting footsteps from the lake and easy walking distance into the heart of town. Poised on the site is a character home built circa 1930-1939. With five children having been raised here, it contains a wealth of happy family memories. Some 10 years ago the home underwent an extensive refurbishment. Kitchen, dining and casual living were amalgamated into a cohesive open area spilling onto entertainment courtyards. A modern stone-surface kitchen was added, along with a gas fire, gas cooking and gas hot water. The bathroom was upgraded but the original big claw-foot bath was retained. There is a second toilet off the large laundry. Four bedrooms and a spacious lounge round off the home. Both the master bedroom and lounge frame district outlooks. Abundant sun, lake views, a Mt Pirongia vista and a panorama of stunning sunsets from the lounge make it a special spot to spend time in. Native timbers and beautiful retro features retain the home's character while tidy gardens add a flourish to the courtyards. Fruit and specimen trees adorn the sprawling section where outbuildings include a double auto garage and several sheds. This is fantastic land-bank or development opportunity in a sought after boutique location zoned for Hamilton Boys' and Girls' High. Hamilton's lake area is renowned for its lifestyle attributes, proximity to the CBD and Waikato Hospital. Four decades on and this property stands ready for a whole new chapter in its evolution.
