19C Hastings Road, Mairangi Bay, North Shore City, Auckland

The current owners, one of whom is an interior designer, purchased this property brand new in 2022 and have elevated it to another level with an expertly curated collection of fittings, fixtures and features. Considered design and east-facing aspect afford the townhouse a surprising sense of privacy, with lush green views and plenty of light captured at either end of the house, as well as a peep of the sea from the top floor.

Stylish, comfortable and very liveable, inviting interiors embody a relaxed, beachy aesthetic that is practical enough for family life. The three level floorplan is also serviced by a lift, which future-proofs the home and makes it suitable for buyers at all stages.

On the second floor, the living, dining and well-equipped chef’s kitchen space is open-plan and flows out to a covered deck. This is a lovely place to sit and enjoy the birdsong and sea breezes.

Three bedrooms are serviced by two bathrooms upstairs, including the master with ensuite and walk-in wardrobe. The ground floor bedroom has its own ensuite and access to the private rear deck, which makes it perfect for teenagers, long term guests or extended family. Also on this level is the carpeted internal double garage. Thanks to its full insulation, excellent storage, custom work desk and study nook, it serves as another living and working space that also flows out to the rear deck.

Mairangi Bay village’s boutiques, bars and beach are just a few minutes walk away. The selection of shops and services cater to all daily needs and excellent public transport options and motorway onramps are also close by for commuters.

The incredibly low maintenance, lock up and leave nature of this property means that weekends are left free for relaxation and enjoying everything the sought-after beachside neighbourhood has to offer.
