With heritage at its core and modernity as its soul, 3 Leamington Road is where the power of '3' converges in perfect harmony - character, comfort and convenience.
Character. Beautifully extended and renovated while honouring its heritage, this quintessentially Mt Eden villa began its journey over 100 years ago in 1926 and has gracefully stood the test of time - effortlessly blending classic charm with contemporary sophistication to create a home that's as elegant as it is functional. Complete with intricate fretwork, ultra high ceiling studs, polished wood flooring, long hallway, sash windows and that must-have villa porch, this is a case study in kiwi character villa that is often talked about but rarely seen.
Comfort. Beyond its pretty character façade and oozing character traits is a thoughtfully extended, modern haven with all the bells and whistles expected in a superior 21st century family home. Positioned on its own, square Freehold site, the home offers four generous bedrooms and two beautifully appointed bathrooms (with an extra powder room) including a spacious master suite with ensuite all on one, connected and easily accessible single level. The versatile fourth bedroom enjoys direct access to its own north-facing courtyard, equally suited as guest accommodation, a peaceful home office, or your own private retreat. This is all about delivering everyday practicality without compromising style.
Other standout features include (but is not limited to):
• Sleek, modern kitchen with separate butler's kitchen (with extra gas cooktop + sink)
• Double glazed bi-fold doors that seamlessly connect onto your west-facing decking
• 2 separate outdoor decked living areas
• Single level living, low-maintenance lock up and leave
• Quiet, private one-way street in a family-orientated neighbourhood

While the owners had every intention of staying, a change in their family's space requirements has seen them secure a larger home, creating an exciting and genuine opportunity for the next buyers to create their piece of history.
