Stay to Play or Improve or Remove!

Tom Peters author of In Search of Excellence once said that If a window of opportunity appears, don't pull down the shade, and while the advice is obvious, too often in life we do just that and pull down the shade for one reason or another. This should not be one of those times. Despite her age, this gracious 1910's character villa has been modernised and improved to keep abreast of the times and today sits on a 717m2 section that is perfect for families. The home has four bedrooms and two bathrooms, making it the perfect size for a growing family looking to centralise and be closer to the hustle and bustle of central Auckland living or for a young couple wanting to dive deeper into the near-infinite dining options of Ponsonby, Grey Lynn and Herne Bay. The home also has an at-home office that could also double up as an ideal children's play room or games room. In the main living area of the home is a spacious living-dining-kitchen area with a priceless indoor/outdoor flow that spills onto a covered cabana and a sheltered private garden, ideal for a trampoline or pizza oven maybe both? This home sits in the heart of Herne Bay's Northern Slopes and is just a short walk down the road to Ponsonby Primary, a decile 10 school that is famous for their Guy Fawkes fireworks display. This also helpfully means that parking isn't a problem come the 5th of November. The home also sits just a short walk from both Point Erin Park and Victoria Park as well as being within walking distance of Westhaven and St. Marys Bay with their variety of parks and waterfront spaces. Subject to Council approval, the property is potentially a multi-unit site if you want to take the investment or land bank route, and demolition is permitted. This home truly is a unique opportunity to own your own slice of nirvana right in the heart of one of Auckland's most iconic suburbs don't close the shades on this one.
