Charming Original Bungalow

This charming 1940s treasure awaits you, set back from the road amidst mature trees and creeping wisteria. Bungalows in original condition are rare as hen's teeth these days, and for the discerning buyer with a visionary eye, a penchant for restoration work or with scope to capitalise - this is a dream opportunity that must be seen!

Private and welcoming with its gloriously sunny north-facing garden - once inside you'll be captivated by the endless possibilities. Saturated in floods of bright warm light - the preserved character features will be enough to make any renovator swoon, with exquisite leadlight windows, two fireplaces and original native timber floorboards. You'll be greeted at every turn by tradition and craftsmanship, high-stud ceilings with exposed beams and generously sized rooms encapsulate the period and provide a luxury of depth and space. The layout is from yesteryear but the bones are brilliant, allowing you breathe new life to modernise and enjoy the vision gradually come to fruition or throw yourselves into an exciting renovation project boots and all.

This gorgeous gal with her vintage heart will require work however the home brims with liveability. From the kitchen a glorious extended living space unfurls from the dining and informal lounge with gorgeous bay window, through to the second larger living room where French doors open out to a sun-drenched north-facing deck and private garden. The main bedroom includes its own extra restful haven, which could be reimagined as a snug library and reading den or even a baby's room. Beyond this the home offers multiple flexi-living options with space for a home office and playroom if desired.

Situated near great schools, and moments from Cornwall Park, Onehunga Mall, Sylvia Park and motorways - this truly is an exceptional opportunity to explore. Whether you're looking to put your own personal stamp on a forever home, or you're seeking a full restoration project - search no more!
