Auction: 8-12 The Promenade, Takapuna on Thursday 28 May 2026 at 10:00AM (unless sold prior)
A rare slice of Glenfield serenity on a private 1095m² section that feels more like a tucked-away gardeners paradise than a suburban address. Set well off the road with ample off-road parking, the home opens to sweeping lawns, mature fruit trees with all kinds of wonderful fruits, outdoor spaces that invite kids to roam, explore and grow. This is the kind of property families talk about finding but seldom do. Don't let the developers take this from you!
This is a warm, functional family home with generous living spaces, modernized kitchen, and easy indoor–outdoor flow to decks and patios made for long afternoons and relaxed evenings. The layout supports everyday life with room to spread out, room to gather, and room to retreat. The outdoor entertaining areas, open and sun-soaked, extend the living footprint and make the most of the land. Check out the workshop as well as the garden house as green fingers will be forever at play on the terraced gardens above.
Location is where this property becomes exceptional. Just up the road sits Glenfield Mall, the Leisure Centre, public pools, gym, library, supermarkets, medical services, and every essential convenience a family relies on. You’re moments from bus routes, arterial links, and the wider North Shore network. Daily life becomes easier and more connected.
Families will also appreciate the proximity to local schools, early-childhood centers, and the ever-active Marlborough Park, a community hub of sport, play and open green space. Whether it’s weekend cricket, playground adventures, or simply walking the dog, the neighbourhood offers a lifestyle that keeps young ones fully engaged.
As with many long-loved homes, some building works here will require buyers to seek their own legal and technical advice. This is simply part of the due-diligence journey which shouldn’t deter serious family home seekers from exploring the opportunity. The land, the location, and the lifestyle on offer remain compelling. Developers must conduct their own due diligence before bidding at auction.
Take the time to view. Private appointments and open homes are available — and this one is worth stepping inside for.
