Sunny spacious and sitting on an east-west axis this home and income captures views of Rangitoto and Sky City from its elevated position on a cul de sac corner. Well maintained and loved over the years a true classic north facing brick & tile home and income offering copious space, scope and opportunities. On a freehold title this 307 sqm (approx.) home provides a substantial downstairs separate studio unit with its own kitchen, dining, living and bathroom, power supply and entrance way. A great opportunity to derive a rental income, or to satisfy extended family requirements by utilising all the configuration options to suit a wide age range - or for the keen investor looking for a double income stream.
Upstairs the layout is traditional with larger than normal dimensions allowing for a merger of rooms if desired. The soft-toned interior was repainted and recarpeted in 2022 with window pelmets and woodgrain timber doors paying homage to the home's 1960's roots. A wide tiled veranda entranceway prefaces the large entrance foyer where the formal lounge can be glimpsed beyond French doors. A large second lounge room could double as the perfect work from home office or maybe an additional bedroom. The separate dining room adjoins a homely, updated kitchen featuring subway tiled walls, some original cupboards and a dining nook. Three large double bedrooms share an upgraded bathroom featuring glass shower, dual basin vanity, freestanding bath and toilet, along with a separate guest toilet. Stairs descend to a well-lit tandem garage with tons of storage, large laundry, and the door to 1a which can be optionally locked off. This recarpeted studio is generously proportioned with the lounge room semi-divided from the slumber zone and en suite, while a sunny dining area adjoins the retro kitchen with old school Formica countertops.
The 607m² (approx.) grounds offer easily maintained lawns along with established shrubs and trees. Excellent school zones include St Thomas Primary and Selwyn College and the property is handy to walkways, cycle paths, beaches and easy access to trains and buses for commuters.
