Overview

Where City Living Meets Country Calm

Auction: on site on Thursday 28 August 2025 at 12:00PM (unless sold prior) Town, country, and coast converge in this captivating home on the prettiest stretch of Riddell Road. Bordering the lush expanse of Churchill Park and just minutes from the sparkling Glendowie shoreline, it offers a rare blend of tranquility, coastal energy and urban convenience. With acres of green space through the back gate, you can’t help but live an active, connected life. Wake to the clear tones of tui, step outside for a morning run or a stroll with the dog, then wander safely across the park for a stress-free drop-off at Churchill Park School. From here, it’s a short hop to the local tennis and bowling clubs. When the coast calls, head across the road to the Tamaki Estuary. Launch your sailing adventures at the family-friendly Glendowie Boating Club or explore the scenic walkways of Tahuna Torea and Roberta Reserves. This is living where land meets sea. Now to the home. Set on a generous 566m² freehold site, this solid masonry residence is built to last and designed for modern living. The kitchen, dining, and family living area is both elegant and functional with subtly defined zones and restful park vistas from every angle. Bifold doors provide seamless flow to the garden and alfresco courtyard, where an electric louvre roof allows year-round outdoor living. There are four spacious bedrooms, including a ground-floor master suite that opens to the garden — a true parent’s retreat and an ideal option for single-level living. A dedicated study, separate laundry, and excellent storage make it easy to keep life in order. Upstairs, a second living area and balcony provide perfect separation for children or guests, or simply a quiet spot to savour the sunset over the treetops. The northwest orientation brings all-day sun, while a reserve next door further enhances space and privacy. Despite the whisper-quiet setting, you’re just minutes from buzzy cafes on Roberta Avenue and the many charms and conveniences at St Heliers — and within walking distance of Glendowie and Sacred Heart Colleges. After viewing nearly 50 properties, the current owners (relocating from an upscale London neighbourhood) knew instantly this was home. And when you see it, you’ll understand why.
