Abbotsford Terrace is a quiet no-exit street that's tucked away from the main roads. It has a fantastic friendly vibe and a great sense of community, plus is conveniently close to historical Devonport village and the ferry into Auckland City, as well as the many beaches that surround the peninsula, and is zoned for Stanley Bay and Devonport Primary schools.

With a beautiful street presence, the enclosed porch introduces the four-bedroom home. It offers easy, single-level living, as well as the comforts of central heating and DVS systems to keep it warm and dry. Stained glass, timber floors and high ceilings feature in the wide entrance hall and its spacious rooms, including the restful front lounge. French doors open out to the covered front veranda from here, which is a lovely spot to relax. The fourth bedroom could be used as an office and the rooms are all serviced by the family bathroom.

At the rear is the expansive living, dining and kitchen space. Practical polished concrete floors are ideal for modern life and are heated with underfloor central heating. Four large skylights in the high ceiling flood the space with natural light and sun, while a wall of doors creates a seamless connection with the entertainer's deck and garden. Flat lawns are framed with established trees and the whole property is fully-fenced, so ideal for little ones and pets. There's off-street parking on the flat driveway, along with a single garage.
