A rare treasure in a prime bays' location, this charming 1930s Art Deco classic sits on private, freehold grounds. Brick and tile built and well maintained, the three-bedroom home will have broad appeal to a range of buyers. This calls to families with young children, empty nesters who still like to garden and investors who seek to explore the scope of adding onto the existing dwelling or carrying out a major redevelopment.

Contemporised spaces merge with character accents incorporating native timber floors offset by a largely white palette to walls, plantation shutters and ceilings. The obliging floor plan connects at several access points to a colossal summerhouse spanning the length of the house with pitched atrium roof and all weather roll down cafe curtains. Expanding the entertaining space this way allows for flexibility with bifolds allowing guests to step down onto a cobbled alfresco courtyard for BBQs and play-spaces. A modern kitchen has plenty of cabinetry, and scope to upscale if desired. Cosy and warm throughout, a heat pump serves the open plan lounge, and a ventilation system maintains ambient comfort for all. Of the three bedrooms, two have French doors opening into the atrium and all share a stylish bathroom with tiled frameless glass wet shower and stylish vessel basin atop the timber topped vanity.

Under the house, a large storage room is perfect for the tools and other bits and bobs. Surrounded by high clipped hedging and fencing, the landscaped site is gently sloping and comprises masses of off-street parking. Close to beaches, schools, Orakei Bay Village, and main arterial routes for a city commute by car, bus, or train. The current owners have also sought planning advice on the possibilities of unlocking the potential contained in this privately situated parcel of land zoned Mixed Housing Urban showing the potential of a 3 to 6 unit development subject to Council approval.
