This stately and captivating single bay villa (circa 1910) radiates timeless charm and street appeal, complemented by a meticulous renovation that has raised it from street level and expanded the interior to ensure superior contemporary living and an abundance of space.

Be welcomed by the wide and sunlit hallway and admire the rich kauri floors, battened ceilings and intricate ceiling roses. These original character features meld perfectly with the modern extension: light and bright open plan living, with a sophisticated kitchen and sliding doors that open onto an expansive, covered north-east deck.

Five generously-sized bedrooms and three stylish bathrooms are cleverly configured to offer flexible living, including the sophisticated master sanctuary with ensuite and walk through wardrobe. The lower level bedroom also comes with ensuite, office and lounge space opening onto a second large ground floor deck. Separate external access mean this zone is ideal for extended family, an au pair or even as a source of additional income.

Ducted gas heating and reverse cycle air-conditioning ensures ambient comfort no matter the season. And you must see the prized double tandem, internal access garage with an additional off-street carpark, an enviable asset in this premium location.

Discover the immaculate rear yard for outdoor enjoyment: flat, fully-fenced and professionally landscaped, keep an eye on the children playing while you read a book in the picturesque pergola amongst the cascading rosemary.

The location is unbeatable, with Ponsonby Central and its myriad dining options just an easy amble away plus the green expanse of Grey Lynn park just around the corner.

All the hard work has been done to create a spectacularly spacious home. So move in and enjoy - this fabulous property represents a rare opportunity to take your lifestyle to the next level.
