Elegant and luxurious city living

Cameron Bailey of Harcourts is no stranger to marketing the large and luxurious, and this endlessly elegant home is certainly at the high end of that category.

Grand in scale and luxuriously appointed, this stunning contemporary home occupies an iconic location, across the road from the Avon River and just a short walk from The Terrace and Riverside Market.

Glorious open plan living includes a stunning designer kitchen with island breakfast bar, delivering both practical space and a chic hub for entertaining.

The dining and casual living space alongside is perfectly positioned to soak in the serene river views, while double doors connect a separate lounge, enabling it to be closed off if required.

A large additional living space with electric fire overlooks and steps out to a good expanse of decking invites easy al fresco dining and gatherings with friends.

The oversized master bedroom, opening to a balcony, is served by a palatial tiled ensuite, while three more bedrooms are served by two additional bathrooms.

Downstairs, a tiled space with its own kitchenette and bathroom, gives you a self-contained, ground floor unit.

This very useful and flexible space has a multitude of potential uses, from accommodating short or long-term guests, to a work from home option or in its current configuration as a home gym.

Double internal-access garaging and off-street parking add to the sheer practicality of this property, as does its lock and leave capability.

Highly specified throughout with inspired interior design and impeccable presentation, this is inner city living at another level entirely, offering a private, centrally located lifestyle in considerable comfort.

The many attractions of the city are within walking distance and include strolling Christchurch’s spectacular Botanic Gardens and visiting the numerous nearby cafes, including the renowned Antiqua Boatshed Cafe´.

Offering an exceptional lifestyle, including strolling home along the banks of the Avon River after dinner on long summer evenings, it also comes with zoning for Christchurch Boys and Girls High Schools, with private schools within easy reach.

Aesthetically faultless in its design and execution, and superbly practical, it offers low maintenance living without compromising on space or comfort.

Scheduled for auction later this month, its many and varied attributes can be admired at this weekend’s open homes, which is also where you will want to register your interest.
