North Belt, Lincoln, Canterbury

As the electric gate rolls open one of Lincoln's hidden gems is revealed. Set on a triangular remnant of land that was created when the land was surveyed many years ago, this two-bedroom home with its quirky quasi-industrial vibe was built circa 1985. Subsequent upgrades include metal cladding and timber linings, gas hot water, solar PV power generation, a modern bathroom fit-out, new floor coverings and solid macrocarpa countertops.
 
French doors open from the sunny open-plan living area to a generous deck (with outdoor bar) overlooking the lawn and established fruit gardens to the chook house. What was a small third bedroom has been sacrificed to extend the lounge and create a walk-in wardrobe for the main bedroom. The woodfire is compliant until 2030 and there is also a heat pump and double glazing for climate control. A 1½ car garage has a dedicated 12sqm workshop attached, and there is a separate carport. 
This property is on a private rear site with its own driveway and is right in the heart of the Lincoln township. It's literally a 150m stroll to the town centre, and the kids will have no excuse for being late to school with both the primary and high schools directly across the road.
 
This one's a winner. In a leap towards self-sufficiency you could enjoy the good life that this property offers and become the envy of your friends by putting your name on the title. The current owner is now living abroad and is keen to see a photo of the SOLD sign at the gate.
 
See you at the next open home!
