Offering approximately 294m² of floor area (according to Auckland Council records), the home was extensively rebuilt to a very high standard in 2015 and has since been meticulously maintained and thoughtfully refreshed inside and out. Sophisticated contemporary updates have kept the home feeling beautifully current while retaining its enduring character. Simply bring your suitcase and move straight in.
Designed with family living in mind, the home offers five generous double bedrooms and three bathrooms across two spacious levels. A ground-floor bedroom and bathroom provide excellent flexibility for guests, extended family or those wanting their own private space.
The home

Upstairs, the exceptionally spacious, triple-sized master bedroom is a standout feature, providing a wonderful private retreat with an abundance of space and comfort, complemented by its own ensuite.

At the heart of the home is the light-filled open-plan kitchen, dining and living area. The sophisticated designer kitchen is beautifully appointed with generous workspace, quality finishes and excellent storage, while the living areas connect seamlessly with the outdoors, creating an inviting hub for everyday family life and effortless entertaining.

The outdoor spaces are a real highlight. Beautifully landscaped front and rear gardens complement the home perfectly, with lush west-facing lawns and paved entertaining areas enjoying the warmth of the afternoon sun. A sheltered east-facing courtyard provides another peaceful setting for morning coffee, outdoor dining or simply relaxing.

Established planting, mature landscaping and multiple outdoor living areas create a remarkably private and tranquil sanctuary, making it surprisingly easy to forget just how central the location is. In spring, the magnificent magnolia trees become a particularly beautiful feature, with their blossoms enjoyed from inside the home, a view that has become a much-loved part of family life here over the years.
