Meticulously renovated and maintained, this very special 1920s bungalow in a quiet street with nearby motorway access is a Takapuna house-hunters' dream.
Beyond the handsome front door and bright lobby with skylight, character reigns, with highly polished matai floors and lovingly restored period doors throughout. You'll love the elegant lounge with built-in window seat, the sunny, stylish kitchen with semi-separate dining and a beautifully-appointed bathroom, with claw-foot bath.
With three generous double bedrooms plus sunroom/office/nursery space there's plenty of room for a family in this fully-insulated, solid property, which also features 2 HRV systems and one 6KW heat pump, making it cool in summer and cosy and dry in winter.
A separate laundry, internally accessed garage, off-street parking plus a private courtyard at the rear of the house are yet more of its many attributes and in terms of convenience, Napier Avenue - with its attractive tree-lined verges, simply can't be beaten. It's close to shops, supermarkets, cafes, theatres and you'll be in zone for top schools, including Hauraki Primary, Takapuna Grammar and Westlake Girls.
With Tui singing in the well-established native trees, you'll never believe that you're so near city life. This home is genuinely a sanctuary and it won't be on the market for long.
