18 King Street, Grey Lynn, Auckland

Electric lady

Beyond the white-picket-fence of this extraordinary Victorian villa, life is everything you want it to be.

Three bedrooms, two bathrooms and a car park are found on this desirable corner site gaining double street frontage and a coveted position in the beating heart of exclusive Grey Lynn.

Fruiting trees and tropical hibiscus beckon from the west-facing front yard and covered porch, while total continuity draws you inside and down the central hallway along polished native timber flooring.

Light and lofty living spaces collide in the perfect contrast against a chefs quality kitchen designed to exemplify true industrial flair.

Informal living spaces offer a seamless connection to the outdoors beyond stackable French sliders, while the east-facing rear deck presents an ideal gathering place for friends and family whether long-lunching, sundowner swilling or simply enjoying your own private paradise.

Mosaic stained-glass windows, ornate finials and many other Victorian adornments ensure they do not make em like this anymore, however, the clever configuration and excellent proportions offer add-value potential.

From the master suite with private bathroom and his and hers wardrobes, two additional bedrooms plus rear study or informal lounge present a world of opportunity for growing families and upwardly mobile professionals really, anyone with an eye for detail.

The incomparable location is a stones throw from Home Reserve, while upscale amenities and dining options await at nearby Kingsland, Ponsonby and the Grey Lynn Village.

Boasting the world's most significant collection of 1900's architecture, Grey Lynn is a locale with style, elegance and an elevated position as one of Auckland's most desirable city-fringe suburbs.
