Captivating Character with Stunning Setting

What lies behind the fence? The answer is something truly unique and special that requires your inspection to fully appreciate. An iconic Dunedin residence which captures sunrises in all their glory down the full length of Otago Harbour. Given the name 'Ngaruroa' or 'Long Wave' the property's view also reaches across the city from Mt Cargill to St Kilda beach.

Built on a substantial 1642sqm parcel of land and a solid foundation of bluestone walls, it has been excellently maintained and lovingly cared for. Home to the mayor of Dunedin at one point in time, this 4+ bedroom home exudes special character features, most notably the hand-made stained glass windows, Royal Doulton foyer tiles imported from the UK and hand carved decorative woodwork. Throughout the house you'll find a rich array of alluring native timbers, the most visually notable being the Kauri floor hallway and Rimu floor porch (now converted into the modern and functional kitchen space).

Intelligently designed for entertainers, you'll appreciate the generous living spaces positioned either side of the kitchen, including what was once a large ballroom, situated on the North side of the property. One lounge bears witness to a superb view down the harbour and has an open fire that creates a homely and ambient setting. On the other side of the kitchen, the original ballroom has been converted into a spacious dining area with full sized snooker table and pellet fire...perfect for large and small gatherings.

As you would expect with a home of this era, the bedrooms are all generously proportioned and the ducted heat pump offers ample heating for comfort all year round. This property also has the added bonus of a self-contained studio, perfect for older children or extended family, and there are two further bathrooms within the home, including one ensuite.

Avid gardeners will be mesmerised by the established garden that houses Pohutakawa's, roses, tulips, peonies, numerous rhododendrons, fruit trees, grapes and a variety of berries. If you're looking for a sanctuary that sets the mind, body and soul at peace then this beautiful property might just be the oasis you could call home for many years to come.
