Set on a very generous 922sqm site, this colonial-style home has so much potential in so many ways. The views are excellent over Lyttelton and across the harbour, and the land has subdivision potential. Two driveways, an oversize single garage with a studio, a carport, off-street parking and various outbuildings all make up an intriguing package.

The house was built in the 1990s and is positioned for the sun to make the most of those amazing views. It has a large covered verandah; an excellent place to sit and entertain or just relax. Inside, there are two living areas, two double bedrooms (master with ensuite) and a family bathroom. There is a conservatory off the kitchen and a sunroom off the lounge, which has French doors to access that wonderful verandah and a log burner to keep things cosy.

Everything is original, so a perfect opportunity to renovate to your own taste. This property has excellent bones with plenty of under-house storage and good access. The garden has many fully laden fruit trees and plenty of hard landscaping, once again a perfect platform to add your own touch and style. Opportunities like this are seldom available in Lyttelton, and our retiring vendors want this one sold.
