This home's endearing street presence disguises just how spacious it is inside, and its elevation ensures that it is filled with light and offers a charming outlook over the surrounding villa roofs and tree tops, towards Mt Victoria in the distance.

Set on a freehold site, well-established gardens introduce the home's charming front veranda. On the entry level, the foyer flows into the open-plan living, dining and kitchen, where high ceilings and large sash windows enhance the sense of space. Abundant natural light illuminates the room and the built-in window seating is a clever addition. The inside flows out to the deck, which overlooks the garden below.

This floor has two double bedrooms, each with their own heat pump, and the main bathroom with bath. Downstairs offers a large lounge area with enough space for a work-from-home office. There is another bathroom down here as well. This area opens out through bi-folds to the covered patio and cottage garden. Flat lawns are fully fenced and flower gardens burst with colour, plus you can grow your own veggies out here. As an extra bonus, there is a large amount of under house storage, as well as a spacious enclosed carport.

This quiet yet well-connected neighbourhood is an easy stroll from local beaches and schools, as well as the iconic Devonport village. You will have easy access to a wide array of shops, bars, cafes and restaurants, as well as the boutique cinema, library and ferry, which gets you into Auckland City in no time at all.

This is a rare offering, in a highly-sought after location. Come and feel its charm.
