Property Details
Exclusive Sole Mandate
Imagine starting your mornings with the gentle trill of birdsong, a steaming cup of coffee in hand, as you step onto your north-facing balcony to soak in a breathtaking view of Napier's serene vineyards and rolling fields.
Here, time slows, and the beauty of country living unfolds in every moment. Nestled at the end of a tranquil cul-de-sac, this lovingly maintained original 1900s home is a masterpiece of charm and craftsmanship. Gleaming wooden floors, delicate broekie lace details, sash windows, and Oregon pine features exude warmth and timeless elegance. Enclosed by multi-purpose American-style shutters, they can fold back or remain shut as a security feature.
The home offers two spacious bedrooms, a study with its own private entrance (which could be a third bedroom) with a skylit ambience that fills the space with natural light. Equipped with a brand-new inverter and solar, this energy-efficient gem operates 80% off the grid. The attic, running the full length of the home, provides ample potential for additional living space or storage, accessible via rear entry. Outside, the veranda wraps gracefully around the home's frontage, shaded by folding timber plantation shutters.
Facing north, the interiors are bathed in sunlight, with the large sitting room stealing the show—boasting double-volume wooden ceilings and exquisite period fittings that deliver an unforgettable "wow" factor. The wide passageway leads to the bedrooms, while stained glass double doors open from the formal dining area into a picturesque back garden and patio. Adjoining the dining room is a functional and inviting kitchen with a built-in oven, hob, breakfast bar, and separate scullery and pantry. A built-in braai area extends the space for outdoor entertaining.
Downstairs, you'll find a spacious laundry/storeroom and a charming cellar. For family or guests, the sunny, self-contained flatlet—with a double bedroom, bathroom, and kitchenette—offers both comfort and privacy. Outdoors, the enchantment continues. The long pool, surrounded by pink heritage roses, indigenous fruit and nut trees, and a veggie garden ready for harvest, adds to the charm.
Dreaming of keeping ducks or chickens? A pond and enclosed area are already in place. The landscaped, irrigated garden is framed by vibrant bougainvillaea and mature trees, while the lei water furrow adds a touch of rustic charm. This grand property is available to make your dreams a reality.
Even the furniture is available, inviting you to step into this idyllic lifestyle with ease.
Welcome to the home where every detail whispers of history, beauty, and the art of country living.
