Motivated vendors...act fast!

Enjoying a well-connected location, bordering the bustling suburb of Birkenhead with just a two-minute walk from Highbury shops, this very special character home on 632sqm (more or less) freehold is tucked privately within a picturesque garden setting. Crafted in the early 1900s, it's been lovingly renovated over time by the current owners. They have retained heritage features like the timber paneling and polished Kauri floors and complemented them with stylish modern touches for easy living. The home is incredibly warm and quiet with insulation and double-glazing downstairs, which was specifically chosen for its acoustic protection.

The light and bright open plan living, dining and modern kitchen enjoys lush green garden views and accesses the double internal garage and separate laundry. Two restful bedrooms downstairs are serviced by the beautifully tiled main bathroom and ensuite. Upstairs, a large window showcases views of the Waitemata Harbour and the Waitakeres. The flexible floorplan works well as a studio, work from home office, extra-large storage area and with the added bonus of a bedroom, making it the ideal teenage space.

A private native garden out front is a lovely place to sit and relax in the sun and enjoy the bird life.
There is gated off-street parking for a small boat or camper out here, plus a huge, fully fenced flat area of lawn out the back, raised vegetable gardens and well-established landscaping.

This neighbourhood couldn't be more convenient. Popular Birkenhead Primary School, cafes, bars, restaurants, shops and services are just footsteps from home, as are many picturesque bushwalks. There is a bus stop right outside, and the Birkenhead ferry is also close by.

Our owners are now downsizing after 16 wonderful years. The property is very comfortable to live in as is, or the potential to add further value could be explored- just too good to miss!
