About this property
Offering character, elevated views, and a prime location, this villa embodies easy French-style living. Elegant, charming, and private, it is just a stroll from town and its festivities. The property is only a short walk to the historic precinct, cafés, garden walks, and year-round parades. While situated in a lively area of Oamaru, the home enjoys elevated views over the town and the sea, surrounded by lush, green gardens that provide a true sense of privacy.Thoughtfully modified over the years, the home feels bright, practical, and full of character. The separate lounge features a cosy open fire set in red brick, complemented by blue décor and lighting that draws the eye to the tall ceilings with elegant detailing. With double glazing and a heat pump, the room is comfortable year-round, while large sliding doors open onto the deck, a perfect place that invites peaceful sunrise moments in your private retreat.
A sunroom extends the living spaces while remaining sheltered and private. Accessed from the exterior and framed by lush gardens, elegant French doors and windows fill the room with natural light, creating a tranquil spot to read, relax, or simply enjoy a slice of French-inspired charm.
The kitchen balances original character and modern convenience. Timber floors, cupboards, wallpaper, and an open fire retain the home's charm, while a contemporary stove, cooktop, extractor fan, and dishwasher provide practical, up-to-date functionality. Thoughtfully added timber shelving complements the original elements, blending old and new seamlessly.
The master bedroom is generous, with soft blue tones and natural light flowing through French doors that open onto the deck. Ample storage and elegant details, including a feature chandelier and charming wardrobe, complete the space.

The third bedroom is ideal as a home office or single bedroom, with built-in storage, natural light, and green outlooks that make it a quiet, comfortable space.
