Genteel and Characterful
There’s no need to sacrifice the charm and appeal of a character home when building new. The details that give character homes their distinct look and feel can be successfully recreated as they have been in this timeless Christchurch home.
Following a full demolition of the existing house and extensive ground remediation, this elegant character home made its debut bringing the past into the present.
Reconditioned leadlight windows in the front door are just one of many character features of this home which includes original interior solid-wood doors, extensive panelling, architraving, picture rails and built-in furniture.
A clever marriage of old and contemporary has been achieved with a thoroughly modern kitchen and exquisitely detailed bathrooms providing twenty-first century comforts in characterful clothing.
