There are family homes, and then there are homes that change the shape of your day. At 15 Atanga Avenue, a gate in the back fence opens straight onto Watling Reserve. For the current owners, walks with the dog and time among the trees have become part of the daily routine.
This handsome 1930s bungalow has the proportions of a proper family home, with four bedrooms, two bathrooms and multiple living spaces across two levels. A separate lounge features a beautiful curved window, while the open-plan kitchen and family area catches the morning light.
Privately positioned at the rear, the master suite feels like a retreat, with views across the reserve to established trees and greenery. At the front, a heated swimming pool is neatly tucked away to enjoy the late afternoon sun. From morning coffee to an evening swim, the home makes the most of the light throughout the day.
An oversized garage and an additional cabin add flexibility, while there is just the right amount of potential to make this splendid home your own.
You're in the coveted Double Grammar as well as Maungawhau School and Auckland Normal Intermediate zones. Pirie's Butchery, Wild Wheat, Ivy & Bean and Mr Zhou's Dumplings are close by. Mount Eden Village is an easy walk away, yet this pocket has a little village feel all of its own.
Homes with this much character, space and direct reserve access rarely come along. Come and see why this one is so special.
