With all the heritage charm and potential this Bayswater address offers within an exclusive use area, this is quite simply the kind of home people wait years for. It's a story you can feel the moment you step inside. Built in 1910, the character bungalow speaks a language that modern construction simply cannot replicate.
An impressive hallway with incredible height, complete with chandeliers, guides you through the home to your choice of four bedrooms, 1.5 bathrooms, and two living spaces. These open onto a delightful Queenslander-style wraparound verandah, eventually leading to a tandem carport at the rear of the property. There are three fireplaces to warm the cockles of your heart, while the 3.3 metre high stud ceilings create an effortless sense of space and light. Native NZ timber and exposed brick bring warmth, texture, and soul to every room.
Adjacent to the dining room and office nook, is a recently renovated, compact kitchen, featuring a 900mm gas hob and oven, just begging for a huge Christmas ham. You'll also find boiling and cold filtered tap water on the bench, a dishwasher, insinkerator, and Nana and Poppa have left the black fridge/freezer for you too. They say it chills the G&Ts beautifully.
Out front, the wide avenue across from the park moves at its own pace. Turn the corner and the water is right there, the Waitematā Harbour, Shoal Bay, the Harbour Bridge, and the Bayswater Marina. It's the kind of coastal proximity that makes peaceful mornings feel like a privilege and a joy for walking the dog.
The owners have moved on and are committed to a sale by Auction in our Takapuna Office on Thursday 21 May (unless sold prior). Nana and Poppa would want it to go to good people so maybe you're who we're looking for. Do not delay, this beautiful slice of New Zealand History is most definitely for sale. ... And yes there are Solar Panels on the Roof.
