13 Franklin Road, Freemans Bay, Auckland

Iconic character address

After an exquisite renovation, this classic character villa on sought after Franklin Road is now ready for its new owners to enjoy the prestigious location, breathtaking views and cosmopolitan lifestyle.

With all the benefits of a luxurious brand new apartment in a stunning traditional home that harmoniously balances tranquility with its outstanding position close to the action, this is an exemplar of effortless modern living.

The well-appointed makeover leaves no stone unturned, including central ducted heating, rich kauri floors modernised in a dark hue, stylish and practical plantation shutters and the restoration of heritage detailing including a bay window and original architraves and mouldings.

From the charming street appeal with its fairytale courtyard, verandah and essential off street park, enter into the welcoming hallway from which the two plush front bedrooms sit.

At the rear of the property is the open plan living and entertaining hub. The cosy lounge zone and spectacular high spec chef's kitchen with expansive marble breakfast bar flows out through multiple doors to the northwest deck with its breathtaking SkyCity vista for dining al fresco. From here, take the stairs down to the private landscaped garden space perfect for evening G&Ts beneath the established trees.

The master bedroom with floor to ceiling built in wardrobing also opens out through French doors to the deck, whilst the fully tiled family bathroom is a statement in style.

This is the ultimate urbanite's abode, with its one of a kind ultra-chic transformation and position just 100 metres from Ponsonby Road and within easy walking distance to Wynyard Quarter and the CBD. Don't delay.
