This transitional villa’s inspired transformation has been masterfully undertaken by the architect owner and earned it a feature in the August/September issue of Homestyle magazine. The spectacular reimagining is a homage to the home’s 1913 heritage, with classic features elevated with a palette of luxe finishes and modern essentials. Leadlights, wainscoting, original plaster arches and high ceilings have been elevated with exotic Arabescato Corchia marble, Soktas lighting and a crisp contemporary colour scheme, as well as central heating and storage in spades. It’s as functional as it is beautiful, with the very spacious, practical floorplan perfect for family life. Whether your children are littlies or teens craving independence, the ground floor provides handy separation, with two more large bedrooms, a lounge, full bathroom and outdoor living. Upstairs on entry level, the residence is introduced by the traditional front porch and elegant latticework. Three bedrooms off the wide entrance hall are serviced by the luxurious family bathroom. The lounge enjoys separation from the expansive dining and kitchen space, which boasts wall to wall eye-catching Arabescato Corchia marble, a mini scullery and high quality, integrated appliances. The inside flows out to two levels of sunny decks, which savour expansive sky and Herne Bay views. With a north facing aspect, the 473sqm landscaped garden oasis is flooded with all day sun and there is plenty of space and elevation out here for a pool. As well as attic storage inside, there is a large area of both covered and lockable under house storage for all the bikes, tramping gear and golf clubs. The neighbourhood’s walkability is perfection - just a two minute stroll from vibrant West Lynn village’s bars, cafes and restaurants, as well as Grey Lynn Farmers Market, local boutiques and public transport. Ponsonby, Grey Lynn and Westmere are also close by. The vendors are now downsizing, creating this exceptional opportunity for family living at the heart of Grey Lynn.
