About this property

For 20 years, this home has grown with one family, from toddlers on the lawn to teenagers heading off to university. With the owners moving out of Auckland, it's ready to be the home where your family grows up too. Walk to Orakei School, meet locals over coffee at Good Day café, then down to the waterfront - this is a welcoming coastal community where families feel at home. Elevated above the road, the 1930s weatherboard home has been thoughtfully renovated by Alignworks Architects for the way families live today. The main level brings everyone together around an open plan kitchen, dining and living area, with a fireplace for warmth and atmosphere. The kitchen faces north, the bedrooms enjoy sunshine, and the living spaces and lawn enjoy the afternoon light. Best of all, there isn't a step between the living room, the deck and the large, flat, fully fenced lawn. Children can run straight outside while you keep an eye on them from the kitchen. Covered decks wrap around the home, giving you somewhere to sit outdoors whatever the weather. Three bedrooms sit on the main level, including the principal bedroom with an ensuite. Downstairs, a fourth bedroom with ample storage and third bathroom have their own access, creating welcome space for teenagers or guests. A mudroom and laundry make the daily comings and goings easier, and off street parking comes with an electric vehicle charger already in place. From here, it's a flat walk to the waterfront and Tamaki Drive. Mission Bay and Kohimarama are close for weekend walks and summer swims, while Eastridge Shopping Centre and Orakei train station are a short drive away. The city is within easy reach by car or cycleway. The home is also in zone for Orakei School, Selwyn College and Baradene College. The family who has loved this home for 20 years is moving on. Come and see how well it could work for yours.
