It's hard to put into words the significance this 121-year-old villa holds in Epsom's history. Whilst over the years it has been strengthened and thoughtfully upgraded to fit modern life, cast your eyes upon the intricacies of the home and you'll be transported back in time.
The soaring ceilings, intricate fretwork, stained glass and fireplaces are just the beginning of the nods Number 153 gives to its 1905 construction. Yet the fully consented extension of the home shows how the property has transformed over time to suit the changing needs of family life.
Your grand villa offers a fully modernised kitchen and pantry, a plethora of living and dining spaces, a central family bathroom, and three bedrooms, all with built-in wardrobes. Everything spread across an accessible, single-level floor plan. Meanwhile, your private guest house offers an additional bedroom, living area, bathroom and kitchenette, while the double garage adds another layer of practicality to everyday life. The impact this combination of spaces has on the way you can live here is a rarity.
The elevation from your wrap-around deck provides an outlook where, every time you step outside with your morning coffee, you discover something new. Travel down the stairs and a sense of calm washes over you as you enjoy summer evenings with family in the backyard, made wonderfully private by the mature palms lining its perimeter. Picture-perfect lush greenery contrasts with bursts of vibrant Strelitzia Reginae flourishing effortlessly.
Aside from the grand home itself, it's the land it sits upon that adds to the appeal. You're situated within the sought-after Double Grammar Zone that this prestigious pocket of Epsom offers. In-zone for Auckland Grammar School and Epsom Girls Grammar School, as well as Auckland Normal Intermediate, Three Kings School, and Baradene College too, you have access to some of the very best education Auckland has to offer your children.
It's a home that was constructed before any of us were on this earth. It is also a home that has been strengthened to stand the test of time and allow life to flourish long after we are gone.
Owned by only four families in 121 years, just imagine what life could feel like when you're the fifth.
