In an Auckland market increasingly dominated by high-density developments, finding a substantial family home with genuine space, its own driveway and a good-sized garden is becoming increasingly difficult. Tucked privately away from the road, this impressive and spacious home sits on a 384m² freehold site. Built by the owner for their own family and lovingly held by the same owner since new, the home reflects a level of care, quality and practicality that is immediately apparent. Thoughtfully refreshed throughout, the home is beautifully presented, combining its original quality with a fresh, contemporary feel. With only one home developed on the original site, this property offers the space and independence many modern developments simply cannot provide, featuring its own driveway, electric gate, double garage and additional off-street parking.
The ground floor immediately impresses with its generous proportions and quality finishes, including premium American Oak timber flooring that brings warmth and character to the living spaces. A large open-plan kitchen, dining and living area forms the heart of the home, while large sliding doors create excellent indoor-outdoor flow to a private garden – a wonderful space for children, entertaining or simply relaxing outdoors. A generous bedroom, complemented by a full bathroom nearby, provides excellent flexibility for guests or extended family, while a separate toilet adds extra convenience. The double internal-access garage further enhances the practicality of the ground floor, with built-in garage cabinetry providing excellent additional storage.
Upstairs, a large and light-filled second living area provides another fantastic space for the family to spread out and relax. Three generously sized bedrooms complete this level, including an impressive master suite with its own ensuite and walk-in wardrobe. All three bedrooms are particularly spacious, continuing the sense of scale that sets this home apart from many newer developments. The family bathroom is equally well appointed, featuring a spa bath for an added touch of comfort and relaxation.
The location is hard to beat. Royal Oak Shopping Mall, Greenwoods Corner and One Tree Hill are all just minutes away, while the central location provides easy access to surrounding suburbs, transport links and everyday amenities. The property is also zoned for the popular Royal Oak Primary School and Royal Oak Intermediate, adding further appeal for families.
A family home offering this combination of land, floor area, private driveway, parking and outdoor space is becoming a rare find in today’s Auckland housing market, particularly in such a central and sought-after location.
