I love the incredible history that abounds in Wakefield - did you know that the village is one of the first pakeha settlements in New Zealand so some of our beautiful cottages and villas are the oldest in the country? 41 Arrow Street is located in one of Wakefield's most popular areas, amongst other turn of the century, and earlier, homes, off the busy main road but so close to the shops and school. It has been lovingly maintained over time to keep the gorgeous period features such as the verandah, sash windows and the coal range ( now for looks rather than function) without sacrificing your comfort! Insulation under the floor and in the ceiling, luxurious wool carpet, an HRV system, and excellent blinds and curtains throughout the house helps keep in the warmth from the heatpump in winter. The gorgeous new kitchen and bathroom means modern plumbing systems in the house, and the wiring has been updated. A special treat in this home, other than it's lovely villa features, is the huge utility room off the kitchen - offering so many options! Doors open out from this space to a private north facing courtyard, and at the street front, there is a lovely lawn area. A single lock up garage is a welcome addition, and there is room for several off street parks on the driveway. Espaliered apple trees grace the fence, along with some michaelias and banksia roses which just add to this lovely property's charm.
The call of out of town family means the current owners are reluctantly offering their special home for sale. Don't miss out - properties like these don't become available very often.
