- Tucked away in a private and reserved spot of Fendalton and surrounded by executive homes - take a step towards complete relaxation at the Fendalton Villa!
Charming and filled with character, this quaint 1910's villa follows a beautiful modern contemporary design. With a two-toned style of exposed rimu timber complemented with a clean white finish alongside a variety of art pieces through the home, you will feel completely at ease.

Fendalton Villa needs TLC
Beautiful property but Old and Needing Maintenance. Power went out in kitchen, couldn't find circuit board/fuses. Toilet in master bath quit working, plumber had to be called. Lamp on wall above bed inoperative and loose. Light above sink in master bath is out. Property needs attention before I would recommend.
Shame, great location with potential.
