Timeless design reimagined for modern living
The designer Mary Ping once said that "to create lasting designs, one must infuse them with emotional sensibility." In the world of modern homes, it's a concept that is becoming harder to find, but in the homes of yesteryear, it can be found in abundance. This wonderful single-level character home at 2/42 Ashby Avenue is just such an example; a celebration of age-old craftsmanship and style reimagined for 21st-century living.
This character home is iconic of its decade and, after being carefully relocated to its current address, was further enhanced with the addition of a chapel-like living room that elevates the space through its high stud and airy feel.
Flowing effortlessly across a single level, the home enjoys three sizeable bedrooms, two bathrooms, a large double garage, and a wonderful indoor-outdoor flow, promising many evenings of laughter with friends and family under the stars. It truly is the perfect combination of age-old charm and contemporary comforts.
As to the location itself, it doesn't get much better than 2/42 Ashby Avenue. The home is perfectly positioned to enjoy the best of St Heliers village, from its cafes and restaurants, and St Heliers Bay itself, through to the public transport lines that run directly to Auckland's bustling CBD. However, arguably the biggest win is the short 5-minute walk from the famous Ashby Pies bakery, promising Sunday mornings spent enjoying some of the best baked goods Auckland has to offer. The home is also zoned for St Heliers Primary School and Glendowie College, as well as being within easy reach of renowned schools such as Diocesan School for Girls, King's College, and St. Kentigern's.
2/42 Ashby Avenue delivers the best of both worlds. It's inspired by the past while being refined for the present. It's grounded and iconic while remaining relevant and inspiring. And, perhaps most importantly, it's a house that can only be defined as a home.
