About this property

Family Living Meets Future Potential - RMD Land To view the property files, please visit: www.propertyfiles.co.nz/72MerrinStreet Proudly held by just two owners since 1963, this much-loved Avonhead home combines timeless solid construction, extensive modern upgrades, and an increasingly rare landholding in one of Christchurch's most sought-after family locations. Positioned on a substantial 822sqm freehold section, the home has been thoughtfully updated over recent years. Featuring a beautifully renovated bathroom, refreshed kitchen with quality appliances, fresh paint, new carpet, upgraded joinery, insulation improvements, and partial double glazing including modern argon-filled bifold doors that enhance both comfort and natural light. Designed for easy family living and entertaining, the open-plan living spaces flow effortlessly to a sun-soaked kwila deck which overlooks the generous backyard. Families will love the excellent school zoning for Merrin School and Burnside High, and the convenience of Avonhead Mall just a short walk away. Adding even further appeal is the Residential Medium Density zoning - creating exciting future potential for buyers wanting space and stability now, while recognising the long-term value of securing a large landholding in the heart of Avonhead. Whether you're looking for a forever family home, land-bank opportunity or future development potential, this is a an opportunity not to miss!
