Disturbed only by birdsong

Set back from the road in a peaceful position, it is the first time on the market for this appealing 1980s cedar home. Boasting a backdrop of native bush with gorgeous views over the valley to the Manukau Harbour and basking in all day sun, this private haven enjoys a sense of seclusion that is so welcome after a busy day in the city.

Thoughtfully designed and cherished by the current owners, this family home is spacious, with a layout that allows separation for all ages. Generous living spaces are seamlessly connected to the outdoors on two sides and a unique circular window in the dining area frames the spectacular view. The tidy kitchen is practical and provides everything a busy lifestyle demands. Offering four bedrooms, or the option of utilizing one as a second lounge. There's a bathroom on the main and upper levels plus a third toilet.

Embrace the comfort provided by the wood burner and the heat pump, ensuring a snug winter and a cool summer. The broad deck steps down to the landscaped garden, a perfect spot for a spa pool and built-in brick BBQ. There is even a smoke house for the keen fisherman.

The double garage is well-organised with floor to ceiling storage, plus a carport and additional off-street parking. A separate laundry and hobby room with further storage are also found on the lower level.

On your doorstep are bush walks and the delightful Taylors Bay at the bottom of the street. Conveniently close to public transport and motorway links taking you to the CBD or south to the airport and beyond. The perfect blend of charm and practicality in a highly sought after location.
