About this property
Patti D'Arbanville once said that she always wanted an older style character home with a backyard, and if it's a sentiment you share, then this 1940s home in St. Heliers is just what you've been looking for.10 Sylvia Road sits on a 374m2 Fee Simple plot of land, with a secluded garden and of off-street parking. Taking pride of place in the design are the beautiful native timber floors that are as iconic of this generation of architecture as they are uncommon in modern homes. In short, they quite literally don't make them like this anymore.
The home features three generous bedrooms, one with a cosy window seat, ensuring plenty of space for a young family, or empty nesters who want to make sure there is room for the kids - or grandkids - to come and stay. There is also a spacious kitchen as well as an open-plan living-dining area and conservatory extension, giving the home lots of natural light and warmth, and entertainment opportunities. At the back of the property sits a private and sheltered garden, perfect for a trampoline or swing set, a veggie patch, BBQ, or anything else that takes your fancy.
The original fittings that the home still enjoys give it a wonderful character and charm, however, given its position in this leafy locale, a cosmetic upgrade would instantly add value and allow you to put your own particular stamp on the property.
As to the wider neighbourhood, convenience is key. The home sits within easy walking distance of the beach, as well as the local cafes, shops, and restaurants. Should you need to dash into the city, the bus stop is just a few minutes walk away and will take you to the heart of the CBD, saving you the hassle of traffic and parking. Zoned for Glendowie College, the home is also close to St. Heliers School and Kindergarten.
Houses of this nature are becoming less and less common in today's market, and this truly is an opportunity to own an 1940's that you can put your stamp on and fill with love, laughter, and memories.
