The Hard Work Has Been Done!

Just a few steps from both iconic Eden Park and Mt Eden Village's thriving precinct, this turn-of-the-last-century villa is a rare find in a prestigious, city-close neighbourhood. A substantial natural-stone wall fronts the courtyard of the picturesque dove-grey weatherboard residence, ageing gracefully for over 100 years on this historically significant, tree-lined street.

The 133 sqm (approx.) interior has been painstakingly refurbished over the years, and now presenting an undeniable opportunity for the next owner to elevate this home to the next level.

A light pastel decor replicates the exterior palette, creating harmony and balance. Centrally heated, High-stud ceilings, leadlight glazing, crafted joinery, and native timber floors pay homage to the home's past and blend easily with modern counterparts. The spacious family and dining room connects onto the kitchen. The large adjacent separate living room flows onto a the deck and expansive backyard. Presenting huge scope for reconfiguration or an extension. All four bedrooms have carpeting and flank a compact bathroom with shower, toilet, and vanity. A second toilet sits off the separate laundry, presenting opportunities to reconfigure and perhaps create a second bathroom.

The single freestanding garage faces the street for easy entry, while in the backyard a lock-up, cabin-style shed has ample storage for garden tools and a lawn mower. The 690 sqm (approx.) section, cloaked in mature trees and native ferns with rockeries beneath, creates a natural, untouched environment. In zone for Mt Albert Grammar, Mt Eden Normal, and nearby Kowhai Intermediate, this well-located property is perfectly poised to appeal to fans of colonial architecture, All Blacks test matches, and superior coffee.
