VIEWING BY APPOINTMENT ONLY - Please call agent for viewing times.

One of Murrays Bays character bungalows, and celebrating a prominent and elevated position on the sunny side of Macnay Way, this traditional family home showcases style and careful renovation evolved from the original 1940s solid kauri weatherboard construction. The fabulous location has many benefits with some of the best schooling New Zealand has to offer including Rangitoto College, all within walking distance,

The current owners have enjoyed bringing up a family here over the last 30 years and following a major remodelling and renovation in 2006, where David Delamare Architects were commissioned for the design, it evolved gracefully to a four bedroom, home with a choice of living areas. The original central hallway offers a well thought out ceiling staircase leading to two attic storage rooms. The exterior character was preserved with a 'hint of Cape Cod' using genuine Canadian redwood shingles up front.

The seamless outdoor flow to the flat back lawn offers opportunities for the kids and four legged friends to play safely in the sun. Enjoy the entertaining options here and appreciate the lovingly tended 40 year old Merlot grapevine, which has marked the passage of time. With lots of room for cars and the boat, there is a full-length driveway with two carports leading to a standalone garage/workshop at the rear. You can also explore the further development options of this generous freehold section.

This house has easily embraced all the important milestones that this family life brings from Christenings to Weddings and beyond.This is a home where fond memories have been made and its sale comes with some reluctance. A truly prime position within easy walking distance to nearby Murrays Bay and Mairangi Bay Beaches and the sailing club, along with all the village eateries and boutiques.
There is easy access to Auckland City by road or bus. Transport links couldn't be easier!
