Overview

Gorgeous Family Villa: Location & Upside

Perfectly positioned on an elevated 713sqm site, this beautiful family villa is destined to become a firm family favourite. Overlooking the iconic Eden Park precinct, it offers an exceptional lifestyle where some of Auckland's very best experiences are quite literally on your doorstep. From morning coffees in Mt Eden Village and evenings in Kingsland's vibrant dining scene, to world class concerts, unforgettable sporting events and an incredibly welcoming community, this is city fringe living at its absolute finest. Inside, the home offers outstanding proportions with five generous bedrooms, or four plus a substantial home office, making it equally suited to growing families or those working from home. At its heart, the expansive open plan kitchen, dining and living area flows effortlessly to a sun drenched, private backyard complete with a spa pool, creating the perfect setting for entertaining, children at play or simply unwinding at the end of the day. What will truly surprise you is the sense of space. The generous grounds, established gardens and elevated position create a wonderful feeling of privacy, with room to breathe and enjoy life well away from your neighbours - a rare luxury this close to the city. It's a home that feels peaceful and secluded, yet sits in one of Auckland's most vibrant and connected neighbourhoods. The practical features are just as impressive. A fully lined double garage complete with new garage carpet and ply-lined walls creates an incredibly versatile space, while additional off street parking, EV charging, central heating and cooling, and a huge fully lined attic provide functionality that is rarely found. Whether it's storing Christmas decorations, hobbies, or finally having somewhere for the drum kit, this home has room for it all. While beautifully comfortable as it is today, there remains exciting scope to add your own finishing touches over time. The generous kitchen is complemented by an enormous adjoining scullery that offers the opportunity to create something truly spectacular. Neat and tidy garden sheds and plenty of dry storage under the house complete the picture. Buyers looking for future upside will be excited by the concept plans to add a minor dwelling at the front of the site, perfect for multigenerational living or future Airbnb income from this sensational location. After many happy years here, the vendors are reluctantly answering the call of the beach. Their lifestyle change creates an exceptional opportunity for one fortunate family to secure a landmark villa on one of Mt Eden's finest elevated sites. Disregard the 2021 sale price. The market has changed, and our vendors have too. They are committed to meeting today's market and have given clear instructions that this home will be sold. Homes of this scale, position and potential are tightly held for good reason. This is one you will treasure for years to come.
