Heritage Meets Modern - A Story Like No Other!

Originally cut from the historic Deans Farm in 1918, this extraordinary Christchurch residence is unlike anything else - a truly irreplaceable offering. Two character homes have been seamlessly conjoined and substantially restored, creating a singular estate that blends traditional architecture with modern day comfort …. on a grand scale. Formally known as 75 & 73a Totara St and set over two titles amongst park like grounds with sweeping lawns and estate style landscaping, this property features remarkable proportions throughout - generous in size, rich in history, and thoughtfully designed for contemporary living. Traditional weatherboard cladding and timber panelled hallways pay homage to its storied past, while formal and informal living spaces create intimate zones for relaxation and entertaining. At the heart of the home lies the stylish, modern kitchen featuring a Brazilian granite bench top, casual dining area, and seamless indoor-outdoor flow to the terrace overlooking the gardens, a scene setter for alfresco gatherings. Indoor pool ensures year round enjoyment, while copious garaging and ample off street parking cater to practical needs. Two distinct wings have been thoughtfully designed to cater to large or multi-generational families, providing exceptional flexibility and privacy. Guests, too, can enjoy their own sense of space and independence when staying. The newly completed top to bottom renovation, with every step documented and supported by a wealth of paperwork, this house has been reconfigured to embraces family living at its finest. With a background in heating, no detail was overlooked during the renovation. Extensive insulation, extra double glazing, and both ducted and underfloor systems make this traditional home wonderfully warm and efficient to heat. Framed by beautifully established greenery, this residence enjoys a rare sense of seclusion - a private oasis captures a sense of rural living amid the sophistication of city life. Zoned for Christchurch's best schools including Boy's & Girl's High, and situated on one of Christchurch's most desirable tree lined streets, this address enjoys exceptional convenience - with Fendalton Village, Riccarton Mall, and the city centre all just moments away. This estate is more than a home, it's a legacy. Substantial restoration and park like grounds offer a residence where tradition, luxury, and modern living come together.
