Overview

1960s Totally Original Group Architect Home

Design enthusiasts of all eras will appreciate the architectural significance of this fully original 1960s home, designed by James Hackshaw. Set on an elevated 913m2 site in a quiet cul-de-sac, the present owners, who are only the second owners, have enjoyed this home for 22 years. Now, it's time to move on to something smaller and spend more time at the beach. Unchanged since its completion in 1967, this 160m² split-level home meanders down a gentle slope, nestled into the landscape. The warm native timber panelling and abundant windows of all shapes and sizes remain intact, adding to the unique character of this mid century beauty. There are two living spaces. The main living area incorporates the original kitchen and dining area which remains the hub of this amazing home. This family zone flows out to the spacious patio and garden, which features established grapefruit, plum, pear and macadamia trees. The second living area at the rear of the home opens onto a spacious deck with garden access and views of the Sky Tower and the city. Some modern improvements include a heat pump and there is ducted heating and cooling throughout the home. All four bedrooms access the garden through cool stable doors, and the deep roof eaves provide some welcome shelter. The bathroom is situated off the original sewing room. There is plenty of room here to reimagine this space into a stunning new bathroom. A second powder room is also located off the hall. Good off-street parking, featuring a double car-port and driveway parking completes the picture with this rare and exciting home. Central location offers an easy commute to the city and is in close proximity to the Northcote shopping centre, local schools and Takapuna Beach. All agents, conjunctionals welcome; bring your buyers.
