12 Shirley Lane, Sawyers Bay, Dunedin City, Otago

With its stained glass windows and stunning original features, this sizeable character villa is located in the quiet subdivision of Shirley Lane in Sawyers Bay.

Through the front door, a long wide hallway typical of the era stretches out before you. This character home features 5 generous double bedrooms, including master with ensuite bathroom and additional sunroom or potential home office, and boasts 5 heat pumps. A large formal lounge with pellet fire, separate snooker room with direct external access, generous laundry and modern family bathroom also feed off this hallway, which leads through to the heart of the home: a modern kitchen and dining space that has been designed with entertaining in mind. This space offers plenty of bench space and storage, and a sliding window with flat bar-leaner windowsill that makes for very easy entertaining. Just outside the kitchen is a covered outdoor room, perfect for those who love to gather friends and family together. This space is wired for a TV and speakers, and features an outdoor fireplace and adjustable walls so you can entertain all year round.

A double carport and ample off-street parking provide space for all the cars and toys, with plenty of room for visitors too.

An established, low-maintenance garden and flat lawn around the house are complemented by a wild backyard just asking to be explored, with mature plantings, chicken house and a treehouse. The large pond next door is a haven for pukeko and ducks.

If an original character villa is on your 2024 wishlist, you won't want to miss viewing this one!
