A LITTLE RETRO ~ A LOT OF POTENTIAL!
First time ever on the market since it was built 51 years ago, this architecturally designed cedar home on its own freehold 721m², has been much loved and a tranquil haven for its original family and friends alike.
Architecturally designed in the late 60s, it still feels contemporary today! The feeling is surprisingly light and bright with an abundance of windows letting in natural light and framing the beautiful garden and bush views. Extensive use of native timbers in the construction and finishing, has stood the test of time. Very much in its original condition, but with a brand new "Colorsteel" roof to take it through the next few decades, this unique little home has potential to expand, rebuild, transform or simply just reinstate its timeless style and charm with a simple kitchen and bathroom upgrade and some redecorating. There is a rumpus room and a workshop/art studio below the house, accessed externally, which could also be further developed.
The setting is so serene and private, nestled at the end of the cul-de-sac, with Kauri Glen Reserve literally on your doorstep and the sound of birdsong all around you. This is a family-friendly suburb, in zone for Willow Park Primary, Northcote College, and within an easy commute to the Auckland CBD with motorway onramps nearby. Northcote and Birkenhead town centres are just a short drive away.
Yes, there is some work to be done and room for improvement, but you'll reap the rewards as you embrace this property's potential. The decision to sell has been made - an outcome is essential.
