The 3 rules of real estate certainly apply here and the bones of this 1900s Villa are still exceptionally elegant. Elevated above the street and located in the sought after suburb of Grey Lynn, it is no surprise these 'old dames' garner such a following. Set on 490m2 and offering 3 original generous bedrooms, separate lounge/4th bedroom, come and enjoy the grandeur of its soaring stud heights and original fretwork, simply in need of some love and attention.
It doesn't take much imagination to see what could unfold here - potentially adding to the current floorplan by opening up the back of the home, add a swimming pool (subject to Council consent) or just making the most of the spectacular and somewhat magical back yard which is full of much adored luscious greenery and mature trees. A spacious garden shed that has seen brighter days could potentially be transformed to a studio space.
Number 3 Northland also comes complete with an off street park which is incredibly valuable in this suburb. Location is gold, being in close proximity to the iconic Grey Lynn Park and walking distance to Grey Lynn shops, West Lynn village and Ponsonby Road. Being central is priceless! Close to motorway links and a short drive to the CBD. Sought after school zones, Grey Lynn school and Western Springs College.
Bring your imagination, this traditional Villa presents a unique opportunity for those with a vision and passion for restoration to add value. The owner of its recent decades has made the move out of Auckland and it is now time to see this home reimagined. Bring your builder and/or architect - the love affair with history awaits you. See you at the open homes.
