2 Selwyn Road, Hospital Hill

Quietly positioned on a large corner site, this elegant, timeless residence is an outstanding example of high-end renovation carried out by well known local Master Builder Peter Christie. The craftmanship in this home is evident as soon as you enter through the stunning leadlight front door. The renovations included creating two extra levels of living space, while retaining the homes original character and features throughout. Two large flat terraces were also formed for the lawn and garden areas along with the construction of large double garage and workshop, all carefully designed in keeping with the style of the home. Everyday living and entertaining occurs primarily on the first floor where there is a farm style kitchen with open-plan dining as well as separate formal dining. Taking centre stage is the fabulous lounge with multiple sets of French doors leading out to the sun-soaked wrap-around veranda for relaxing or additional entertaining space. The balance comprises a spacious master with full dressing room and en-suite, a second bedroom and a separate family bathroom. An impressive native timber stairway leads to an extremely comfortable second living - your sanctuary, or perhaps an office, media room, or reading retreat. On the lower level of the home is one double bedrooms, a huge lounge, rumpus room along with a powder room and shower room - perfect for teenagers, or guests with its own separate outside entrance. Added features include a wine cellar, covered barbeque area with an open fireplace, a dedicated spa pool area and onsite parking bay with its own entrance, suitable for a large motor home or boat. Fully fenced and supremely private. The north western aspect of the home means fabulous sun all year around. With views of Napier Hill, sea views out to Cape Kidnappers, an extremely convenient location to the CBD and Ahuriri and a host of other features, this could well become your forever home. ...
