Overview

308sqm Home & Granny - Too Good to Miss!

SOLD! - This home is now sold with buyers missing out. More homes now needed to meet demand! Rising proudly from its stately corner position and surveying its natural surroundings on a very generous 685sqm site, this elegant and expansive 308sqm residence nestled in the heart of Kumeu presents a classic blend of timeless character and modern indulgence. Offering 5 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, multiple living areas - including a semi-contained separate wing - with exceptional outdoor flow options: this home offers the scale and versatility that growing, extended and larger families crave - but so rarely find. Vendors' living situation has changed, downsizing is necessary, and it means this enviable and prestigious home will now be relinquished to a new family. Step inside, and discover true generosity of space with soaring 2.7m stud ceilings and 3 separate living areas that create natural zones for entertaining, relaxing, or that rare flexibility to give teenagers, elderly parents or guests their own retreat. The beautifully appointed kitchen complete with a full scullery, makes culinary duties and hosting of friends and family a pleasure. Every detail has been carefully considered, from the quality appliances to the clever storage design throughout. All 5 bedrooms are of a wonderful size, with the master suite offering an elevated peaceful escape with its walk in wardrobe, private ensuite and superb views to the forested surrounding countryside. Spectacular outdoor flow from two of the living areas to the completely private and easy-care landscaped grounds offer space for summer gatherings, safe and secure adventures for kids and pets, or just peace and quiet to sit and reflect how fortunate you are to own this incredible new future-proofed home. A place that will grow and adjust with your family as needs change with clever flexibility. But the real kicker? This home features exceptional home and potential income opportunities. A separate entrance combined with a semi-contained living area complete with private patio all on the lower level provides an ideal setup for extended family, visiting guests, a boarder or Air BnB income options. Perfectly positioned moments to the local Primary School, Kumeu Shops and Huapai Domain Sportsgrounds as well as surfing and dog walking at world-class Muriwai Beach - this location is hard to beat! As more of Auckland discovers the allure and desirability the Northwest lifestyle has on offer (and bang for buck!) - early inspection is well advised. With plans firmly in place and steely determination to meet the market, vendors are crystal clear with their demand that ALL offers will be presented. Make no assumptions as to value - make your offer, and make it yours today!
