Overview

Mid-Century Magic in a Secret Garden Oasis

Auction: 34 Shortland Street, City on Wednesday 26 August 2026 at 10:00AM (unless sold prior) Originally designed by renowned architect, James Hackshaw, and held by the same family for over 60 years, this idyllic 1950s, 971m² Kohimarama estate is now offered at auction as the current owners prepare for their next chapter in a retirement village. While it presents the facade of a cottage from the roadside, stepping through the front door reveals an expansive, light-filled 181m² family home bathed in a coveted northern aspect. The upper level incorporates a delightful, informal kitchen and living hub (where you can snuggle up by the wood burner stove), flowing effortlessly into a formal lounge. Double French doors open to an all-season entertaining deck, ready for hosting family and friends year-round. A split level features two generous bedrooms, family bathroom, plus a versatile single room ideal for a nursery or home office. The lower level is a multifunctional zone complete with a full bathroom and laundry. Currently utilised as a guest suite, it would also serve as the ultimate teenager's retreat or secondary living room. The crowning jewel of this property is the spectacular, park-like garden. Intertwined with whimsical pathways, a lifetime of love and care has created a private sanctuary that is a physical and visual joy. A glasshouse for seedling cultivation plus dedicated composting and worm farm setups provide everything an avid gardener could desire. This outdoor paradise also features a swimming pool and a spa. Tucked away at the end of a peaceful cul de sac, this home offers some of the most tranquil, leafy views in Central Auckland. Quiet and private yet close to the attractions and amenities of The Bays - St Heliers village and beach, Kohimarama beach, parks and reserves are all less than 2km away; and it’s in zone for Glendowie College and Kohimarama School. A property of this calibre must be seen to be believed. Call now!
