Great Bones with Greater Potential!


Big on size, big on aspect, big on 564m2 of freehold land and now, after 28 years she's ready to be enjoyed by a new owner, ideally someone who's keen to capitalise on all that this amazing part of Auckland has to offer.

The ingredients for something really special are here. Classic, white picket fence street-appeal and a sunny front veranda with Sky Tower views reminds you just how convenient this city fringe location is.

Stepping inside, first impressions are dominated by the wide hallway with its stained glass windows and impressive stud height. The native timber floors lead you to three oversize bedrooms, four gorgeous character fireplaces (in almost every room) and a flexible living, dining and kitchen space that flows through French doors to an elevated deck and large backyard. Certainly generous in its existing footprint (approx. 166m²) and in tidy condition throughout, this home is flexible enough to suit families or investors wanting four bedrooms if required.

Go nuts with your renovation plans because when the time is right, there's plenty of room and scope for a sun drenched pool, further extending of the home and landscaping opportunities to make this one of the best homes in the suburb.

A mere six minute walk to Ponsonby Central, even closer to Grey Lynn Park - one of Auckland's best! It's also a very pleasant weekend stroll through Ponsonby to Herne Bay beaches and Jervois Road cafes.

Vendors don't wait 28 years to 'pick the market'. If you've been missing out in Ponsonby and Grey Lynn because of unaffordability, don't overlook this and regret it - particularly if you're after size and scope.
