SOLD! By Brandon & Carol

It's not every day that you come across an opportunity to secure a north-facing character home on an entire site in the heart of Glendowie.

First glances suggest a solidly built 1950s brick home, typical of its era, but thanks to aluminium joinery, roof replacement, a graceful extension in the early 90's and a substantial entertainers deck, the curb appeal is undeniable.

Opportunity, Opportunity, Opportunity

Is it the 809 square meter (mol) parcel zoned for Mixed Housing Suburban under the Unitary Plan? Is it the scope to renovate, add value and transform this into a gorgeous haven for you to enjoy in the coming years? Or is it the fact that this home allows you to enter one of Auckland's most desirable suburbs and enjoy a home that will stand the test of time? Whatever your search be, this is a home that you must see.

The open-plan kitchen layout and dining area are expansive, complete with high stud ceilings and spacious open-plan living; they work together to create a light-filled and impressive space.

The deck is generous in size, and with a northeast-facing aspect, it delivers the opportunity with its all-day sun to extend summer into the later months. You will be delighted by how much outdoor living room there is, enough for dining, parties, lounging and entertaining. The lawn comes with endless possibilities: room for a trampoline, lawn cricket, a vegetable garden or the fur babies to run around.

Four generous double bedrooms are well-proportioned. The master bedroom has its own ensuite and large wardrobe, adding a layer of convenience. Your storage issues are finally solved with ample storage throughout the house and a sizeable under-house basement.

You'll love living in one of Auckland's most sought-after suburbs. Just steps away from all the cafes, bars, and eateries that Saint Heliers Bay has to offer. Local school zoning includes Churchill Park School, Glendowie College and Baradene College.
