Vintage chic on affordable freehold

A palpable history pervades every corner of this charming historical cottage believed to have been part of the Parr family estate and nursery established on surrounding acreage in the 1850s. Located in the foothills of Waitakere Ranges and bordering Parrs Park, the area is steeped in history as is this circa 1920s weatherboard gem. Occupying a compact pocket this is expected to tug at the heartstrings of first home buyers and downsizers with investors also urged to count the benefits for proximity to amenities.

The vintage cottage displays all the signature features of the era from sash windows, high stud ceilings, and solid native timbers to wainscot panelling. The monochromatic interior has been refurbished to bring the decor into the 21st century with the polished wood floors, light carpets and crisp white walls instilling a visual spaciousness. Elegant living room with inclusive dining area combines open fireplace and cosy heat pump to address winter chills - as does the HRV system throughout. French doors flow out onto a north facing patio and secluded fully fenced back yard lawns for summer parties and BBQs. The open plan kitchen is a cheery updated space that combines character panache with modern stainless steel appliances of rangehood and gas cooker. Carpeted bedrooms are both well served by a contemporary family bathroom while ancillary areas bookending the front door comprise a front porch for the requisite morning coffees and the laundry room opposite.

There's OSP for three cars and a couple of storage sheds for the bits and bobs on a low maintenance and freehold 275sqm (mol) section. Zoned for Henderson High School and close to a number of other excellent schools, the property is handy to transport. At the heart of extensive outdoor recreational and sporting facilities, this captivating home is also only 4 minutes drive from Glen Eden shops.
