It's hard to find a fault in this meticulously renovated bungalow. Modernised to perfection, yet full of the character ingrained in its construction 100 years ago.
Set on one of Three Kings' most quietly admired no exit streets, 17 Queensway carries history, presence and rare restraint. Originally built in the 1920s, it belongs to an era when homes were crafted with proportion, permanence and personality. Today, that character has been preserved, while every modern improvement has been executed with architectural consideration and premium craftsmanship.
Inside, the home feels composed from the first step. High ceilings create volume, original character details bring warmth, and the renovation delivers a refined finish that feels current without erasing the soul of the bungalow.
The floor plan has been intelligently adapted for modern living, offering three bedrooms, including a master with its own ensuite, two beautifully finished bathrooms and two living areas that flow with ease, while still allowing separation when needed.
At the heart of the home, the designer kitchen delivers the finish expected at this level, complemented by a scullery and utility area that keeps daily life elegantly out of sight. It is a space designed to be admired, but more importantly, lived in.
Beyond the fully fenced grounds, the location adds real weight. Three Kings sits on the cusp of some of Auckland's most established central suburbs, with Mt Eden, Epsom, Cornwall Park, Westfield Newmarket, Remuera Village, and Dominion Road's dining precinct and direct routes to the CBD all within easy reach. Yet Queensway feels removed from the rush. As a quiet no-exit street, it offers privacy, calm and neighbourhood pride rarely found so close to the city.
The area's history runs deep, shaped by the volcanic landscape of Te Tatua-a-Riukiuta/Big King, the remaining prominent peak of Three Kings. Just moments from the home, it gives the suburb a sense of identity, with green space, walking tracks and elevated views close by.
For a century, 17 Queensway has been part of Three Kings' evolution from historic volcanic landscape to one of Auckland's most connected central neighbourhoods. Now, after a beautifully executed restoration, it is ready for its next chapter.
Restored with care, modernised with intelligence and positioned in a location of genuine substance, this is not simply a character home. It is old Auckland charm, brought confidently into the future.
