A Reimagined Classic with Space, Sun and Outlook !

Set on an elevated 1,019m2 site in one of River Road's most tightly held pockets, this beautifully renovated 1957 home delivers space, sun and flexibility in equal measure. Originally designed by architect Terence P. Vautier - best known for his 1930's and 1940's Art Deco work, including 11 homes around the Fairfield Bridge precinct - the brick and concrete masonry construction has been thoughtfully reimagined for modern family living, while retaining subtle nods to its mid-century origins and the architect's passion for Art Deco detailing.

Spanning approximately 260m2 over two levels, the home offers a highly functional layout suited to families, entertaining and extended living. Upstairs, the designer open-plan kitchen, dining and living zone forms the social heart of the home. Sleek and well appointed, the kitchen features excellent storage and a dedicated scullery, while expansive glazing in the living area frames the elevated outlook and floods the space with natural light. The balcony is an inviting place to enjoy the setting sun and panoramic view, or why not retreat away to unwind and relax in the sheltered alfresco area that flows seamlessly from the kitchen, a real suntrap year-round. This level also includes two generous bedrooms, including the main suite, dual-access bathroom and a separate laundry.

Downstairs, two further well-proportioned bedrooms - both with walk-in wardrobes - are serviced by a guest bathroom. A spacious second living room provides an ideal retreat for teenagers or guests, complemented by a dedicated office nook for those working from home.

Recently rejuvenated by only the home's second owners, upgrades include new double-glazed aluminium joinery (with a striking triple-glazed feature window), ceiling and wall insulation, and a ducted heat pump system to the main level for year-round comfort, and a new roof.

Internal access leads to an oversized double garage with excellent storage - a genuine bonus for families or those with hobbies and gear. Centrally located yet privately elevated, this premium River Road address is close to cafes, sought-after schooling (Woodstock and Waikato Diocesan), public transport, the CBD, river walks and cycle trails.

A substantial, sun-filled family home offering scale, comfort and outlook - and a River Road lifestyle that's increasingly hard to secure.
