37 Glen Road, Kelburn

Positioned in this prestigious area of Kelburn within close proximity to the university, CBD, Kelburn village and local transport - the real estate mantra: location location location rings true. Situated on the preferred "sunny side" of the street with single garage and resident's parking directly outside the home, as well as easy access to the house = prime convenience for families on the go! The distinguished exterior of this arts and crafts era home is an elegant show stopper. Architecturally landscaped, the garden and thoughtfully designed outdoor areas of this home blend modernity with a reverential nod to its history - all culminating in a very special aesthetic effect. A welcome front porch guides visitors into the inviting entrance foyer which opens into the Parisian influenced living room with feature bay window and gas fireplace that anchors the room. The bay window with period mullioned windows is double glazed and provides a spectacular vantage point for viewing the background undulating bush and hill views. Beautifully appointed soft furnishings and colour scheme add to the feeling of understated elegance. Interior surprises are showcased with the extensive renovations to the rear of the property. The spacious family/kitchen/dining space, blessed with sunlight from a procession of floor to ceiling windows and doors, flows to an outdoor terrace and an elevated flat lawn. Family or guest accommodation on the lower floor also includes a double bedroom with dual access en-suite for ease of living. The stairwell with stained glass window is the conduit to the upper floor. The gracious master bedroom with feature bay window and daybed provides a luxurious space for lounging. Extensive storage and a modern en-suite completes this refined retreat. Two additional double bedrooms and a separate single bedroom/ study upstairs covers the family requirements, together with a generous family bathroom with period clawfoot bath. Unmatched, this home exudes panache and the elusive X factor. ...
