Treasured Trophy Villa - Harbour & City Views

Be prepared to fall in love with this superb trophy villa, a stone's throw from Ponsonby Central, bathed in sunlight and elevated, panoramic harbour and city views.

Discerning early Auckland merchants prized Paget Street for those views, which remain magnificent. This location is highly prized today and quality homes in this Freemans Bay street are tightly held and rarely offered. The current owner, who is now committed to downsizing, has treasured this family home for 22 years.

This original two-storey villa has been extensively renovated to meld character features with modern functionality, yet there's still some opportunity for discerning buyers to add value with their own enhancements.

This home, one street away from Ponsonby Road, oozes street appeal. Its front wisteria is dripping with blooms each spring. From the front double carport, you can step into a sizeable hydraulic lift which services the two levels above. Its interior is bathed in jeweled light from leadlights once it reaches the upper level.

Appreciate the home's soaring stud height, wide original staircase and re-polished kauri floors, plus an orientation bathing it in all-day sun. An entertainers' kitchen-dining-family room is complemented by another big living room on this level, rounded out by two bedrooms, a family bathroom, powder room and storage.

Living flows out to the private and leafy backyard, with a separate sleepout or home office. The owners have enjoyed gated laneway access from here to Ponsonby Road.

Upstairs revels in magical harbour and city views from its front veranda, third living area (harbouring a second kitchen) and master bedroom waking to the outlook. The fourth and fifth bedroom and another bathroom round out upstairs, which opens to a rear deck enjoying afternoon sun.

Don't miss out on your chance to purchase this special villa in an extremely prized, central location.
