Overview

Room for the Projects, and the Last of the Sun

Two automatic doors, one garage, and you can drive right through it. Roll in off Kenmure Road, roll out onto the Blair Street driveway, and nobody has to reverse anywhere. Size is the point here. There’s a storeroom and a large workshop, and still lots of room for the cars, the motorbikes and whatever else needs a home. For a mechanic, it’s a workplace that happens to be at home. For a handyperson, it’s the end of packing projects away at dinner time. Leave the job half done on the bench and it’ll be waiting for you in the morning. Upstairs, you’re up where the sun finds you. There are two living areas, both generous and facing the hills. Both open onto the deck, and from there you can see Saddle Hill. In summer, that means you get the last of the sun. Dinner turns into a second round of drinks, someone fetches a jersey, and nobody suggests heading inside until the light has gone. When it does, the Yunca wood burner on wetback is in the dining and living room. The kitchen is built for using, with good cupboard and drawer space close to hand. In the primary bedroom you’ll find a walk-in wardrobe and an ensuite, while a family bathroom with both a bath and shower looks after the other three bedrooms. One of those is currently working as an office. There’s a separate laundry with space for a second fridge/freezer. It’s the sort of thing you’d only notice once you’ve lived without it. It’s around 340m² (more or less), built in the 1980s, traditional sand and cement solid plaster cladding, on a small section with no lawn to mow. The owners have loved living here for 17 years, raising their children and getting on with life. They’ll tell you the house gave them plenty of space and left their weekends free. Schools and bus stops are close by, and Mornington Shopping Centre is a walk away. Some houses ask you to fit around them. This one has room for whatever you’re bringing with you. Come and have a look. Deadline Sale closing at 4.00pm on Thursday 26 November 2026 (prior offers considered) Collectively marketed by Team Robinson – three people working for you
