This could be the opportunity you've been waiting for - a substantial property in the heart of Fendalton which is being offered to the market on an "as is where is" basis. Resurrect the magnificent home and restore it back to its former glory or redevelop the expansive, north-facing 1774m2 land it sits on. However you view this project, you'll undoubtedly be investing in one of Christchurch's most prestigious suburbs and the value of your investment is sure to benefit you in years to come.
History buffs will be interested to learn that the property was home to the Stoddart family, early settlers to Canterbury. Named "Lismore Lodge", the house was a well-known gathering place for Christchurch artists.
Set back from the road on a private rear section, the property offers a generous and flexible floor plan with four/five bedrooms, two bathrooms and an abundance of living spaces. If a fifth bedroom is surplus to your requirements, design the entire ground floor with fantastic family and entertaining spaces in mind - create a large games room, a formal lounge, separate living room and an open plan kitchen and dining room.
Outdoors also provides exceptional space and the luxury of a full size grass tennis court and secluded pool and spa area. Our owner has lovingly maintained the gorgeous grounds encompassing the property and it won't be hard for you to imagine the lifestyle you could enjoy here.
The desirability of this location cannot be overstated - just a stone's throw from Mona Vale and Hagley Park and a few minutes' drive to the dining and retail precincts of Victoria Street, Merivale and Fendalton Malls. Zoning for Christchurch Boys' and Girls' High schools further underpins the value of your investment.
This is a rare opportunity too good to miss - a blank canvas for you to create the most enviable home in Fendalton.
