Life Looks Good on the Reserve

Transformed to blend elegant character elements with modern design for today's busy lifestyles, this stylish family home has been tastefully upscaled throughout. Benefitting from the verdant beauty of the adjacent native bush nature reserve, the property is a tranquilly cloistered retreat with ample entertaining spaces inside and out for children and pets to play safely.

The deep grey 1930s bungalow on two levels has most of the living and accommodation on the elevated upper level with an urban outlook across the neighbourhood and a tropical resort ambiance. A separate formal lounge has doors opening onto a wide balcony accessed from the master bedroom, as well. An open plan dining area has bifolds stacking back to enable open air alfresco entertaining on a north facing barbecue deck and manicured lawns. The kitchen is a sleek and contemporary cook's hub with an eye-catching cobalt splash back and engineered stone benchtops amidst stainless steel appliances including gas hob. The ground floor comprises a large bedroom/rumpus with ensuite which can be repurposed as a work from home, while upstairs the other three bedrooms share two more bathrooms. The master bedroom has ensuite and spacious walk-in wardrobe. Basement storage accompanies an oversize internal access single garage set behind electric gates on an extremely private, beautifully landscaped section.

In zone for Orakei School and Selwyn College, this gateway bays' home is situated in a prime location with access to superb beaches and all the cosmopolitan amenities dotting the nearby coastline. Close to Eastridge shopping centre and a short commute to the centre of the city, the current owners have already bought and a new owner is sought.

Auction: 3:00pm, Thursday 9th June. In Rooms: 411 Remuera Road (unless sold prior)
