What's around 79 Milton Rd

Private, Sunny and Ready – Act Now

This turn‑of‑the‑century villa sits in a world of its own, elevated above the valley with a leafy, treetop outlook that delivers exceptional privacy and a wonderfully peaceful atmosphere. Bathed in sun and surrounded by established gardens across its 860 sq m site (more or less), the home feels like a true retreat while still offering the convenience of city living. Its character is immediately apparent, with the charm and warmth of a bygone era blending seamlessly with thoughtful modern touches. Inside, the kitchen and dining area open through bi‑fold doors to a generous deck, creating an easy connection to the outdoors and making the most of the home’s sunny aspect. A separate living room provides a cosy, intimate space to unwind, complete with a charming window seat and the comfort of both a compliant wood fire and a heat pump. French doors extend the living room into the side garden, offering yet another peaceful spot to enjoy long summer evenings. Accommodation is practical and inviting, with two well‑proportioned double bedrooms, one with built‑in cupboards, the other with a wardrobe. The rear bedroom opens through French doors to a private patio, a sheltered nook framed by mature trees that filter natural light beautifully. Throughout the property, the established gardens create a sense of calm and enclosure, enhancing the home’s retreat‑like feel. A secure single garage provides excellent storage and is complemented by ample off‑street parking. Attached to the garage is a versatile hobbies room, originally consented as a hair salon, offering endless possibilities for creative pursuits, a home office, or a quiet workspace. With views over the lower garden, it’s a delightful bonus that adds real value and flexibility to the property. Positioned with excellent access to both the city centre and Ahuriri, this home offers the best of central living while maintaining a peaceful, elevated setting. Whether you’re starting out, downsizing, or simply seeking a character home with charm, privacy, and personality, this villa is a rare find. DEADLINE SALE: Closes 2:00 p.m. Tuesday, 7 April 2026 (unless sold prior)

Exceptional and personal service

John and Vaughan made the whole experience stress free. John gave us a friendly welcome at the first open home, and from there Vaughan guided us through the rest of the house buying journey. He arranged a private viewing to help us make up our minds, and then made sure he was there for us with any questions or concerns we had throughout the remainder of the process; Always on the end of the phone, but never overbearing. It was the perfect balance of communication and client care. Compared to our experience with two other real estate agencies, the service and level of attention to detail from Sotherby's was truly exceptional. We can't thank them enough! A world apart from other agencies.

Top Notch Team on every front!

Vaughan and John were incredible, from start to finish they went the extra mile to deliver a quick sale at the price we were hoping for. Communication was great the whole time and the process was smooth and informed. We would highly recommend them to anyone looking to sell on the hill!
