DGZ Gold - Renovate or Redevelop
As a grand dame witnessing more than 100 years of changing times and traditions, this glorious old classic is settled comfortably on its 945m section within the covetable borders of Double Grammar Zone. Although sympathetically modernised upgrades and additions have been added in over the years, the glimpses of the original character remain inside and out. Zoned Mixed Housing Urban and offering a large flat accessible site at a prime address, a range of possibilities are available to the astute renovator, investor or developer. Investigating the possibility and yield of a four unit project will be worth the undertaking (example scheme plan available).
The mellowing 295m family home itself has a comfortable feel with a somewhat dated yet tidy interior dcor. Single level living includes a gracious formal dining area and a large conventional sitting room with attractive fireplace flanked by a sun-trap alfresco conservatory. This opens onto a private plaza with swimming pool - perfect for entertaining. A second family lounge flanks the spacious kitchen where good design incorporates outdoor flow for breakfast on the deck in summer. The four double bedrooms are well-appointed with built in wardrobes, master with dressing room and three full bathrooms - two being ensuites and a study which provides an option for a fifth bedroom.
Double garaging is internally accessed and the entire home is generous on storage. Apart from the ultimate in secondary school zoning, the property backs on to Kohia Terrace School for the primary age children and is also zoned for Auckland Normal Intermediate. Close to Newmarket and Westfield Mall for retail therapy, rooftop dining and entertainment as well as Cornwall Park and One Tree Hill for leisure, this sprawling family home handy for the CBD is a chance to refurbish and transform or capitalise on the land size and zoning for a bigger projected outcome. 25 years on, the kids have grown up, our owner has relocated and it's time to close this chapter.
