97 Richardson Street, Saint Kilda, Dunedin City, Otago

The perfect mix of 1920s character and modern features, this lovely home has great street appeal with a cottage garden at the front, and plenty to offer new owners. Set on a fully-fenced section, offering a safe and secure space for children and pets.

From the cosy front porch, step into the wood panelled entrance hall, with its polished wood floors and detailed windows, and feel instantly at home! Fully double glazed, with a heat transfer system complementing all-day sun and other forms of heating, staying warm is easy here.

Off the hall, you will find a large living room with wood burner plus heat pump, three large double bedrooms, and a modern family bathroom. Character ceilings, bay windows and details hinting at the home's glorious age are found throughout this very tidy property.

The end of the hallway opens to a sizeable kitchen and dining space. The kitchen absolutely asks to be the heart of this home - with a wooden butcher's block, ceramic butlers sink, freestanding oven with gas hob, lovely wood detailing and an exposed brick wall, all overlooking the backyard.

A large, sheltered deck - with bar! - opens up from the kitchen, and leads to a private backyard featuring vegetable boxes and a greenhouse, plus single garage, woodstore and a large dog kennel/run behind. A separate laundry room is accessed from just outside the kitchen, and there is plenty of off-street parking for extra vehicles.

In zone for St Clair Primary School, Tahuna Intermediate, and both Kings and Queens High Schools, and within walking distance of the cafes and beaches of St Clair, this is the ideal home in which your family can grow.
