Perfectly elevated on a prized Epsom site, this substantial weatherboard residence captures all-day sun, leafy outlooks, and panoramic views stretching across One Tree Hill to the Manukau Harbour. Set on a generous 971sqm (approx.) site, this classic family home exudes timeless charm, scale, and enduring appeal. Known as "Glenstrae", a name proudly displayed at the front door, the home enjoys a position of quiet distinction.
The home unfolds across well-proportioned levels and offers approximately 280sqm of internal space, balancing traditional character with a highly functional layout suited to modern family life. The main level is anchored by a grand foyer, creating an immediate sense of arrival. A separate formal living room with fireplace provides a refined retreat, while open-plan kitchen, dining, and family living connect effortlessly and extend outdoors to an expansive elevated deck, overlooking a lush, established lawn, ideal for entertaining, relaxing, and everyday family enjoyment. A dedicated laundry completes this level.
Accommodation is thoughtfully arranged on the upper floor, comprising five bedrooms, including a master bedroom positioned to take full advantage of its elevation, with large windows framing tranquil outlooks. An ensuite accompanies the master, while a family bathroom services the remaining bedrooms. The inclusion of two separate studies offers outstanding flexibility for work-from-home, study, or quiet retreat spaces.
Below the main living areas, a substantial basement provides excellent utility, ideal as a workshop, storage zone, or hobby space, adding depth and versatility without impacting the home's primary living flow. A double car garage further enhances practicality.
Lovingly held and enjoyed, this is a home that offers immediate comfort while allowing scope over time to subtly enhance and personalise, without compromising its classic integrity. Located in a wide, quiet no-exit street lined with mature cherry trees, often affectionately likened to a "Cherry Tree Lane", the setting is peaceful yet convenient. Close to parks, shopping, public transport, Mt Roskill Grammar, Mt Roskill Primary School and zoned for Mt Roskill Intermediate, Three Kings School, Onehunga High School and Baradene College, this is a rare opportunity to secure a significant family residence, ready to continue its story with the next generation.
