Archers Road, Hillcrest, Auckland Region

After 32 happy years in this mid century classic, our owners have now reluctantly priced their prized home at $849,000. Now open for back up offers.

Elements of the 1960s heritage are still in evidence with the two storey home oriented to capture north facing sun while walls are painted a crisp fresh white to instil a further sense of space. With open plan living incorporating a split tier for agreeable separation, new laminate timber flooring creates a sleek modern vibe to lounge, adjoining dining area and kitchen. The heat pump above fireplace maintains a cosy atmosphere on those chilly winter days while the cute galley kitchen's cast iron pot belly stove is a nostalgic reminder of days gone by. Ample glazing keeps the interior bathed in plenty of natural light while hinged double doors access a covered deck. Three bedrooms share family bathroom with shower over bath and vanity, while a toilet and the laundry are separate. On the ground floor, huge storage flanks a versatile carpeted rumpus room with exit to patio - created from the original single garage and offering extra accommodation. With cosy heat pump to keep your teen or guests toasty, this is an invaluable multipurpose addition.

The fully fenced pet and kid-friendly section includes a flat front lawn and rear courtyard bordered by lush foliage and mature trees. Off street parking and carport takes care of the vehicles - but with bus stops a 30 second walk away the car may become redundant! 5 minutes from Glenfield Mall & PaknSave and motorway on and off ramps within easy reach too. With Eskdale Reserve nearby and the short drive to northern beaches, this is a home that makes life and leisure a breeze.
