Onewa Road, Birkenhead, Auckland

TUCKED AWAY LIFESTYLE. A COMMUTERS DREAM - WALK TO BIRKENHEAD.

A property of distinction and of contemporary flair - meticulously renovated inside and out.

Nestled off the road, being the rear half of a generous quarter acre (circa. 1,011 sq metres), this stand alone home is a perfect match for location-driven, busy working couples, smaller family, astute mum and dad investors providing early inheritance and a helping hand to young adults, or those seeking an easier pace of life in down-sizing mode.

No matter the buyer - walking distance to Highbury's vast array of facilities, Northcote College just down the road, or a rapid commute to the City, either by fast-track bus or car - the ease of living here will land this fine property high on the check-list for good reason.

This striking-looking home enjoys traditional timber board and batten construction, lovingly maintained and recently painted. Stepping inside, the raked ceilings in the lounge give a feeling of space and a relaxed vibe, combining brilliantly with the dining, both zones flowing outdoors via dual french doors to a privately screened decking area. Bathed in sunshine and the spot for long afternoon BBQ roasts and entertaining, or indoors with the sparkling-new designer kitchen, featuring marble-effect stone benches, quality appliances and built in scullery.

With a guest WC and laundry on the ground floor, the first floor is a peaceful retreat, with a luxury bathroom and two spacious bedrooms. The master flows out to a viewing deck and wonderful sun streams in.

Slung between the trees is a hammock - just the place to unwind. A hideaway privately fenced with a grassed yard fringed with beautiful plants - carefully planned to be easily managed.

Lastly, the lockup garage and attached lined sleepout, or studio, is a real bonus. An optional third bedroom separate from the house or work-from-home space - musicians, artists, flatmates.

Properties of this calibre are unique and seldom available. Act with haste. Will be SOLD.
