Full of original charm, character and promise, this Queenwood home nests in a 1011m2 environment with secret gardens, nature nooks, a well-appointed den and quietly hidden cottage-like hobby shed. A sense of wilderness wonderland and a touch of whimsy create a special aura at this quaint property which is brought to market for the first time in 60 years. The weatherboard home, with a tile roof, has had some modifications in the past, however, opportunities exist to add value and enhance this idyllic retreat in the heart of sought after Queenwood. Privately set behind a traditional white picket fence and accessed via a cobbled tree-lined driveway, the home is surrounded by tranquil seclusion. The layout encompasses three bedrooms, including a master with an ensuite, a kitchen with a leafy garden outlook, meals area and lounge that opens outdoors, a main bathroom, separate toilet and laundry. Floor and ceiling insulation and a free-standing gas fire contribute to the home's cosiness. An ancillary dwelling, fondly dubbed "The Den", is offered with beds, a large freezer and trunk. While the den has a great 'man cave' ambience, it is hugely versatile and suitable for diverse needs. The hobby shed, which was inspired by Austrian-styled cottages, increases the garden enchantment. There is carport parking plus a wood chipper to inherit. Kids will love adventuring in this garden park, climbing the trees and enjoying a quintessential Kiwi lifestyle. Queenwood Avenue is a well-established, family-friendly neighbourhood served by boutique village amenities, including a trendy cafe, a swim school and kindergarten. Swarbricks Landing, river trails, and Chartwell mall are all in easy walking distance. The area is zoned for popular Hukanui Primary.
