About this property

For the first time in nearly half a century, this much-loved 1960s home is ready to welcome its next chapter. Cherished by the same family for 46 years, the property radiates a warm, inviting energy from the moment you step inside, showcasing beautiful native timber floors that run throughout the home. Designed with both practicality and lifestyle in mind, the layout features a highly functional separate kitchen that flows effortlessly into an adjacent dining area. From there, you are drawn into the expansive, open-plan living space. Bathed in afternoon sun thanks to its coveted western aspect, this main living area is anchored by a classic open wood fireplace, perfect for cosy winter evenings. When the warmer months arrive, the living area opens out to an extensive west-facing deck. This elevated vantage point is the ultimate spot for weekend barbecues, relaxed entertaining, and soaking in the stunning views that stretch across the Orakei Basin and out to the city skyline. The home comfortably accommodates family life with three generous double bedrooms, all serviced by a central family bathroom. Adding to the property's immense versatility is a single garage complemented by a separate laundry and office space-an ideal setup for those who work from home or need extra hobby room. There is also ample off-street parking for two additional vehicles. Set on a generous 627sqm section at the end of a quiet, family friendly cul-de-sac, there is plenty of lush green grass for the children and pets to play safely. The location is simply unbeatable for professional couples and young families alike. You are securely in-zone for highly desirable schools, including Meadowbank School, Remuera Intermediate, and Selwyn College. Plus, daily commuting and weekend leisure are made effortless with the Meadowbank Train Station and the scenic Orakei Basin Walkway just a short stroll from your front door. Opportunities to secure a tightly held property of this calibre, in such a prime pocket of real estate, are incredibly rare. Don't miss your chance to make this enduring classic your own.
