There is an effortless appeal to this renovated 1960s brick-and-tile home. Solid, sunny and beautifully straightforward, it brings together the things that make everyday living work, with a generous single-level layout, a flat freehold section and a north-west-facing garden that makes the most of the afternoon sun.
Inside, the renovation has been handled with a considered touch. Polished timber floors bring warmth through the open-plan kitchen, dining and living area, while crisp white walls and plenty of natural light keep everything feeling fresh. The kitchen has been completely reworked with excellent storage, tiled detailing and contemporary appliances, sitting naturally at the heart of the home and keeping cooking, dining and everyday life connected.
Then there’s the outdoor living. Wide doors open to a substantial deck before stepping down to a flat, fully fenced lawn. With its north-west aspect catching the sun from midday through to evening, it’s made for doors left open, dinner outside and long summer afternoons in the garden. There’s plenty of grass for children and pets.
Three bedrooms with generous wardrobing keeps accommodation comfortable and practical, with everything where you want it and on one level. The renovated bathroom is particularly well finished, with full-height neutral tiling, a frameless glass shower and contemporary vanity giving it a quietly luxurious feel. A separate renovated laundry and guest toilet add practicality, with the laundry offering useful bench space, cabinetry and its own sink, while a heat pump ensures year-round comfort.
Outside, the 441sqm freehold site is perfectly proportioned. The lawn is flat and usable, the deck has genuine scale and off-street parking accommodates multiple vehicles behind electric gates. There’s enough room to live well, without giving up your weekends to maintaining it.
The location makes life just as easy. Mangere Bridge Village is close by for coffee, dining and everyday essentials, while Kiwi Esplanade and the Manukau Harbour foreshore put waterfront walks within easy reach plus coastal tracks of Ambury Regional Park add even more reason to get outside.
School zoning includes the highly regarded Waterlea Primary School which is an easy walk from your front door. Intermediate and High school options include Royal Oak Intermediate, Onehunga High School.
Solid brick. A fresh renovation. Sunshine, lawn and a freehold title. 21 Wallace Road gets the important things right.
