Sometimes the best finds are the ones trying to hide from you. But look a little closer here... you might have just found it.
Tucked neatly down a private driveway just behind Mt Eden Village, this two bedroom heritage home is exactly what so many buyers have been dreaming of. Character, warmth, and a location that truly delivers. But this isn't just a heritage cottage. The contemporary addition brings in sun from morning through to evening and creates a seamless connection to the outdoors. A little house, a little garden, and a whole lot of lifestyle.
Inside, the addition has been thoughtfully done. A renovated kitchen sits at the heart of the home, opening to a dining and living space with soaring ceilings that make everything feel bigger than it should. Light moves beautifully through the space across the day. And yes, there's even that special glimpse of Maungawhau. A gentle reminder to get up the mountain for a walk, a run, or a slow wander on the weekend.
The living flows easily out to a private outdoor area. Low maintenance, easy care, and just right for a Friday evening with friends or a quiet Sunday with nowhere to be. Or wander down to the village. The Eden Cloakroom, Frasers, XOONG, Circus Circus, De Post. It's one of those neighbourhoods that doesn't ask much of you, but gives so much back.
Both bedrooms are well sized and nicely separated from the living zone, and the bathroom is modern and well appointed. There's a real ease to this home. Lock up and leave when you need to, come back and exhale when you're home. That balance is harder to find than people realise.
Eden Park is nearby, transport is easy, and the school zones are exceptional. Auckland Grammar, Epsom Girls' Grammar, Mt Eden Normal, Mt Albert Grammar, Auckland Girls' Grammar, and ANI.
First home buyers, downsizers, investors, this one will have wide appeal. I have a feeling it won't stay hidden for long.
