ASHBURTON GUARDIAN, Friday, November 30, 2012
Often admired... 28 Grahams Road Situated at 28 Grahams Road is a 1970’s inspired 3 bedroom home looking to be loved by its next owner. From the moment you open the front door you are greeted by natural light, coming from the floor to ceiling windows that overlook the garden at the entrance of the property. There are many vistas from more windows in this loved family home. When the owner was asked what she loves about the home, many things come to mind. From her memories of family times spent out in the garden, and in and around the pool (which is no longer used, but with some TLC many more memories could be created); being able to have the kids walk to school, knowing that they are safe as it is just a stones throw from home and having the park across the road was of huge benefit when her boys were growing up. She can’t wait to be able to see someone else enjoy the home as much as they have. The entire house is laid out beautifully with the west wing housing the kitchen/dining and living areas whilst off the entrance hall you find the east wing and the bedrooms, bathroom and laundry, a very practical layout with plenty of potential. The decor throughout is tasteful with the use of neutral tones. The heating in the home is by way of a large log fire, perfect for snuggling up on those cold Mid Canterbury nights. The open plan design of the kitchen/dining area allows for that much needed family or guest interaction. The living room is well laid out and opens through a slider to the outdoor patio and into the rear garden. All of these areas are bathed in natural light, making the home seem warm and inviting. The entrance leads to the three good sized double bedrooms all with wardrobing. The master bedroom enjoys views into the garden, one could imagine lying on the bed in the sun reading a good book. The bathroom has a separate shower, bath, vanity and toilet. The separate laundry is a good size, with access to the single internal access garage. Outside, the landscaping is done with mature trees and easy care plantings, all this on a 935 square metre section. The section is fenced for the safety of both children and pets, with both the rear and the front of the section having grassed areas for the lawn mower to get out on. A brick barbeque area, large storage sheds for the wood and the garden tools complete the package perfectly. Our vendor is ready to hand the keys over to the next generation who can reap the same simple pleasure and enjoyment their family has enjoyed over the last 20 years. This house is well worth a visit for anyone looking for a project in a location handy to both school and the shops. Give your family the ultimate festive gift - a beaut house that will soon become your home.
