Ridgewood Crescent is one of those very rare streets, a unique cul-de-sac with a special character. The adjacent bush setting has inspired a range of architectural styles that combine to create a unique community. It's a short walk through the beautiful Ridgewood Reserve to Verran Primary School, and on weekends you can walk a little further for a coffee at Verrans Corner. The Chelsea Pony Club is just across the road, as is the North Shore's largest urban forest, the Eskdale Reserve. This huge green space is criss-crossed with paths popular with walkers, shaded by tall trees and dotted with streams and waterfalls.
This safe, private, and secure property offers a lifestyle choice which is rare to find in this growing Auckland market. While the location has the benefit of being very tranquil it is well situated to key roads, bus stops, shops and quick access to the city, giving you the best of both worlds.
Please call to view or come to the open homes.
