Whether you're a professional couple, downsizing, or looking for a low-maintenance investment close to town, 35 Melrose Street delivers style, security and convenience in one smart package.

Tucked behind a secure gated frontage within the Four Avenues, this contemporary home pairs bold modern design with easy-care, lock-up-and-leave living in the heart of Christchurch. At approximately 150M2, it offers far more space than many central city homes.

A striking front door sets the tone from the moment you arrive, opening to a bright tiled entry that leads through to the heart of the home. The kitchen is made for those who love to cook, with stainless steel benchtops, a gas cooktop, under-bench oven, double dishdrawer and a full run of overhead cabinetry, while a window splashback draws in natural light. It opens to a generous dining area, ready for everything from weeknight dinners to long lunches with friends.

Beyond, the lounge is framed by shelving and a gas fire, with wide glass doors that open the room completely to the courtyard and blur the line between inside and out.

Three double bedrooms all include built-in or walk-in wardrobes, with a heat pump upstairs keeping things comfortable year round. The main bedroom enjoys a walk-in wardrobe, plantation shutters and a fully tiled ensuite with a heated towel rail, while a second tiled bathroom serves the remaining bedrooms and a separate downstairs guest WC adds everyday convenience. One double bedroom currently works perfectly as a home office.

Outside, the private paved courtyard is a sheltered retreat, with established planting and room for both outdoor lounge and dining settings, making it ideal for summer entertaining or a quiet morning coffee, with minimal upkeep.

The carpeted, internal-access tandem double garage has an automatic door and laundry, with room for bikes, storage or a workshop, while the gated driveway provides secure off-street parking.

Set within the Four Avenues, you're only 800m from the Margaret Mahy Family Playground and a short walk from local cafés and eateries, with Hagley Park and the central city's dining and entertainment precincts all close at hand.

Whether you're a professional couple, downsizing, or looking for a low-maintenance investment in the central city, 35 Melrose Street delivers style, security and convenience in one smart package.
