Auction Location - 34 Shortland Street, Auckland Central.
Positioned in a sought-after, upmarket neighbourhood, this elevated mid-century 1960s brick home enjoys a prime setting directly opposite the playground and open parklands of Madills Farm Reserve. Well maintained and full of character, it presents a range of exciting options, renovate to create your dream home or explore redevelopment potential on the relatively flat and accessible 759sqm (approx.) site.
A staircase leads to the entry, where a generous 216sqm (approx.) interior reflects the charm of its era. Warm and light filled, the home retains original Rimu timber joinery, complemented by added insulation and heating introduced during its time as a rental. Two spacious living areas and a formal dining room showcase the classic 1960s layout, while the separate kitchen offers ample cabinetry and a stainless-steel bench.
Accommodation includes three double bedrooms with built in wardrobes, two positioned on a split-level elevation, including the master. A family bathroom, separate toilet, and large laundry with additional shower add practical functionality. Outdoors, the rear patio opens to expansive lawns, a blank canvas with clear potential, enhanced by the home's forward position on the site. The basement level features a substantial double garage with excellent storage, alongside additional off-street parking.
Zoned for Kohimarama School and Glendowie College, and just minutes from beaches, Eastridge Shopping Centre, and key transport routes, this tightly held property is offered for sale for the first time in over 60 years, a rare opportunity to secure a foothold in a premium coastal location with significant upside.
