Unique Mid Century Hideaway

This unique property located at 238 Scenic Drive, known as 'Cosy Dell', was originally designed by architect Keith L Piper in 1961 and has featured previously within Auckland Garden Tours.

The current owners have cherished this home for over 20 years, creating many memories with family and friends, enjoying barbeques and summer activities on the expansive 2036m2 north-facing land which is beautifully landscaped and includes plenty of flat areas for the kids to enjoy.

Electric gates open to a tree-lined driveway, revealing a perfectly elevated solid brick home, surrounded by lush greenery. The interior boasts high sarked ceilings, timber wall paneling, and a feature brick fireplace with built-in cabinetry, providing a cozy atmosphere in the lounge and dining areas.

The contemporary kitchen overlooks the garden and includes gas cooking and a quaint breakfast/morning coffee bar. The large deck overlooks the beautiful native bush and unique view of the Manukau Harbour creating the perfect backdrop for entertaining guests or enjoying lazy Sunday brunches with family while the kids enjoy exploring the bush track.

Sleeping quarters feature three bedrooms with French doors opening to the front sun deck, while the spacious family bathroom includes a full bath, gas hot water, and a separate toilet. The office nook and adjacent large laundry/storage area provide ample space to keep things organized.

The property also includes a large under-house garage with extra storage, plenty of parking, and a charming studio, originally designed as a potting shed, but could double as a workspace or kids' playhouse.

Conveniently located only 4.3km from Titirangi Village, this private and tranquil property is a stunning example of a classic mid-century residence, providing the perfect balance between modern living and natural beauty.
