5942m2 Home & Income Convenient Lifestyle


If you dream about having a lifestyle block that's peacefully quiet & private, with space for your extended family & pets but want to be close to work & city amenities, then 20 & 20A Dene Court Lane is the answer. Living here feels like you are deep in the middle of the countryside & yet you are only 10 minutes' drive to Glenfield or Albany shopping, beaches, & just 16km to downtown Auckland.

The land: At 5942 square metres (1.46 acres), & currently Large Lot Zone, this gently sloping idyllic retreat borders Dene Court Nature Reserve. Near to the house is a large flat lawn, salt-water pool, hot tub, & plenty of decking for entertaining. Take a walk & you'll find a gazebo & so many sunny secluded areas amongst the native & exotic trees, plus there's a fruiting orchard of apples, pears, citrus, olives, & nuts.

The main house: Spacious mid 1980's Lockwood with 5 bedrooms, 2 lounges, & 3 bathrooms in total. It's been modernised with double glazing throughout but there are still opportunities to add value. It has so many charming features:

  • The main living area has gorgeous American Oak floors, sarked cathedral ceilings, wood-burner, hardwood kitchen bench, walk-in pantry, all opening out through bifolds to a large private courtyard on one side, with decking & pool on the other. Expansive views across the bush reserve valley.
  • Second lounge upstairs leads to three double bedrooms & incredibly stylish bathroom at one end & the master suite at the other with great separation for family members to have their own space.
  • Master bedroom has a Juliet balcony with amazing views across the beautiful forested valley. It also has a lovely tiled ensuite, a walk in wardrobe & study area.
  • Downstairs is a completely self-contained bed-sitting room with own bathroom & kitchen bench - this is a very private area with its own entranceway - ideal for boarders & visiting guests.
  • Double garage, large water storage tanks, solar electricity, & heat-pumps complete the picture.

The minor dwelling: A quality home of 2 double bedrooms with spacious open plan kitchen, dining & living area opening through wide nesting sliders to a large sunny deck with beautiful green outlook. It's also fully double glazed, insulated & has heat-pump & cosy wood-burner. Originally a large garage for classic cars, it was rebuilt & completed as a dwelling with CCC in 2014. It's far enough away from the main house for you to rent out without compromising your privacy. Large carport attached.

Convenience: Under 10 minutes' drive to beach, shopping at Glenfield or Albany Mega Centre, & only 16km to the CBD, & a few minutes to motorways North, South, or West. Zoned for Albany Junior & Senior High Schools & several primary school options.

The current multi-generational owners have loved their 21 years here but are already committed to start a new chapter amongst the lakes & mountains of Central Otago. 2017 CV $1.95M. What will you pay? Please call me for more information or to arrange a private viewing time.
