Everything's Huge Except The Price
Behind iron gates and among established trees lay an opportunity to restore a grand home to former glory, in an unrivalled location with elevated views.
With polished floorboards, leadlight windows and decorative fretwork, the original charm and character of this late-1880's worker's cottage remain. All of the rooms are generous in size, upstairs has expansive views that encompass Rangitoto Island, the city skyline and the Sky Tower.
A large living room with a cosy wood burner ( a new one is on the way ) opens to a spacious balcony to take in a peek of the city. The well sized kitchen and dining flow to a quiet and private patio, perfect for alfresco dining during the warmer months. A garden amongst mature hedging features a mandarin and lemon tree with room for further planting.
Four large bedrooms, one of which is currently configured as a separate lounge boasting a beautiful fireplace, are serviced by two well-appointed bathrooms. The upstairs bathroom has a view so spectacular that your morning shower will leave you feeling inspired and energised for the day ahead. Check out the Hundertwasser style bathroom worked on by one of the apprentices to Hundertwasser , it's a real art piece.
Below the house, you'll find a sizable workshop with serious storage and a separate room to utilise as you see fit. A double carport with further off-street ability makes parking easy.
Easy walking distance of everything and having handy public transport options available nearby. So, leave the car at home and make the most of living so close to Ponsonby and the city, where you can enjoy Auckland's best shops, cafes, restaurants and parks, only moments from home.
