A CLASSIC WITH A SECOND ACT.

The Case for Something Different

Behind the electric gates, a 1930s classic makes an immediate impression. Finished in black, rich in character, and beautifully kept, the original 2-bedroom villa, currently configured as a law office, carries all the charm and detail of its era. Adapted for everyday business use while still holding onto the features that make homes of this period so special.

Then comes the surprise.

To the rear, the property opens into a modern private residence, carefully designed to connect with the original home while creating an entirely different way of living. A refined contemporary fit-out
comes together with ease.

The outlook is the part you will not forget. Alfresco living, established gardens, festoon lights, a lower patio area, and views across the water to Rangitoto and the city create a setting that feels private,
polished, and ready to enjoy.

What makes this property truly special extends beyond its presentation. It's the remarkable versatility it offers. Live in one and lease the other. Run your business from the front while enjoying private living and entertaining at the rear. Bring the spaces together to create one substantial family residence or retain the separation and return the Villa to its former 2-bedroom historic glory, creating a second residential dwelling. Or look to the future, with exciting potential to explore separation or subdivision, subject to the necessary approvals. Zoned for Terrace Housing and Apartment Building, the possibilities are endless.

It is immaculate, considered, and genuinely unique. A property for the professional, the investor, the family with vision, or the buyer who simply wants something with more substance than the standard
home.

Character. Income. Lifestyle. Flexibility.

Few properties offer this many options in one address. The next move is yours.
