Owned by the same family for the past 44 years this 1950s era home has been beautifully preserved and well-maintained. An elevated 883 sqm (approx.) full sized site is privately oriented and immaculately presented with lush lawns and charming garden gazebo and even a Sky Tower view shaft. Scope exists to scale up and redecorate the weatherboard and brick home if desired however, this is very comfortable family-friendly retreat in its present form.
An entrance foyer leads to a large open plan living and dining room with built in cabinetry while the second larger lounge has stairs to the ground floor and picture windows with leafy neighbourhood outlook. Banks of French doors stack back to ease the flow for entertaining on sheltered terracotta tiled patios that skirt the western flank of the home. A serviceable kitchen has built in breakfast nook, freestanding oven, and old-school cabinetry with passageway exit to rear patios for the laundry to line trip. A family bathroom upstairs has toilet separate and serves three bedrooms including master also with doors to the patio. Downstairs is another bathroom to cater for the recreation den with bar and pool table where Saturday night games on the big screen will be a hit with friends. Substantial storage throughout includes a large basement workshop while an open carport sits at the head of the driveway.
In zone for Kohimarama School, St Ignatius and Glendowie College and a short walk to Dingle Dell and Madills Farm Reserve, the property is close for both Kohimarama and St Heliers beaches or short stroll on foot to join the boardwalk strollers with their coffees and dogs in tow.
