Intoxicating Character, Pedigree & Position

This incredibly special and distinctive residence steeped in history envelops you with an intoxicating mix of rich character and soulfulness, sympathetically updated for modern living. Enjoying splendid views out to the harbour and Rangitoto, it's picturesque from the street, with a soothing sense of permanence and pride - in the DGZ. Starting life as the gardener's cottage for Woodcroft Estate, it was notably extended by acclaimed colonial architect Atkinson Abbott, whose landmark designs include Auckland Grammar School, before its harmonious early-2000s renovation.

Appreciate the quietness of this street from the deep wrap-around veranda, knowing a trusted craftsman builder undertook the homes most recent modernisation. Frank Lloyd Wright-inspired lattices embellish the front door and the elegant foyer's ceiling rose. Relaxed family and entertaining spaces incorporate a gracious lounge, formal dining with office annex, and an additional lounge opening to the veranda. An atmospheric butler's pantry supports the light-filled dine in kitchen, flowing out to a private courtyard for alfresco evenings.

There's versatility in this three-level layout - the additional front lounge has previously functioned as a master bedroom, with a walk-in-wardrobe and bathroom nearby, neighbouring a bedroom. Upstairs has two bedrooms and a bathroom. The luminosity of light in a ground-level room with accompanying walk-in wardrobe saw it favoured as the current master bedroom. This level includes the third bathroom, laundry, oversized internal-access double garage, and plentiful storage including a storage room. Gardened grounds with lawn for children's play have the bonus of Wharua Reserve's playground just across the road. Its greenery leads to Shore Road's reserve, sports grounds, and café.
