A CHERISHED FAMILY RETREAT – TIMELESS ELEGANCE ON 2387m²

Set on a breathtaking 2387m² allotment in one of Gisborne’s most tightly held and desirable pockets, this magnificent period-style residence is a true celebration of timeless elegance, quality craftsmanship and family legacy. Built by renowned local builder Warburton Homes and cherished by the same family for over 30 years, the home is now being offered for the very first time—an extraordinary opportunity for one fortunate family to write the next chapter in its rich story. Surrounded by exquisitely manicured gardens and nestled behind a charming meandering pathway, the home’s traditional façade is beautifully enhanced by wrought iron lacework, pine-lined verandahs and a striking leadlight entrance door that immediately sets the tone for what lies within. Step inside and you're welcomed by a grand hallway adorned with intricate ceiling roses, ornate cornices and warm slate flooring, all hinting at the quality and character that continues throughout. Offering an impressive blend of space and functionality, the home features 3 generous bedrooms plus a dedicated study, with multiple versatile living zones designed to accommodate growing families or those who love to entertain. The heart of the home is the timeless kitchen, appointed with Miele appliances, gas cooktop, steam and wall ovens, island bench and excellent storage, flowing effortlessly into the meals and casual living area. A spacious rumpus or games room with a feature open fireplace adds further flexibility and warmth, while the formal lounge, complete with gas log fire and traditional timber mantel, is perfect for intimate gatherings or quiet evenings in. A thoughtful floorplan ensures every member of the family has their own space. The master suite, with double door opening, offers a period inspired ensuite and includes a corner spa bath as well as a fully fitted WIR. Two additional bedrooms, with BIRs, enjoy private access to the side verandah, which in spring becomes a fragrant tunnel of blooming lilac wisteria. The dedicated study is spacious and could be used as a 4th bedroom, if so desired. The master bathroom and powder room service these rooms with ease, while French doors from the hallway open directly onto the central alfresco space—seamlessly connecting indoor and outdoor living. The central courtyard is an entertainer’s dream, featuring rustic red brick paving, ceiling fans and a covered area ideal for year-round dining and relaxation. Beyond the courtyard, the serene backyard unfolds into a private oasis, complete with a sparkling solar-heated pool, a substantial 10m x 7m (approx.) hobby shed, and an oversized carport to accommodate your RV or motorhome. This incredible outdoor sanctuary continues to surprise, with winding garden paths leading through various “garden rooms” filled with thriving cottage plants, established deciduous trees and whimsical arbours. Raised veggie beds, a mulching bay, potting shed and a 4000lt irrigation tank support a sustainable lifestyle, while side access via double gates provides additional parking and car accommodation as well as caravans, trailers or extra vehicles. Comfort and convenience are further enhanced by new carpets throughout, elegant window furnishings with lace, pelmets and quality drapes, ducted vacuum, alarm system, gas heating, split system and two evaporative cooling units. Located just moments from schools, childcare, transport and the vibrant Gisborne township, this meticulously maintained residence offers a rare balance of period charm, family functionality and lifestyle appeal in a welcoming and prestigious neighbourhood. Don’t miss your chance to secure one of Gisborne’s true hidden treasures—a home of genuine warmth and grace, ready to welcome its next family.
