2/161 Hinemoa Street, Birkenhead, North Shore City, Auckland

Tenants have gone and the landlord of 25 years has decided it is time to let a new owner create their dream home in this beautifully serene location backing onto Le Roys Bush. Set well back from the road on a ROW, this sunny property is surrounded by woodland ringing with birdsong. Its idyllic setting offering an adventure playground - the flying fox already tethered to an ancient tree, with lawn that spills into the trees.

The location on Hinemoa Street is great - walk one way to the Birkenhead Point cafes and the new wine bar or the other way to Highbury with its amenities; shops, supermarket, library, Livewire Super Park, schools, public swimming pool and great commuter facilities - buses and ferry services to the city are accessible from your gate.

The 1920's character cottage is set on an unusually large cross-lease section - 2/3rds of 2972m2.

• Entrance level - kitchen/dining, lounge, double bedroom, modest bathroom plus sunny deck with external stairs connecting down to the lawn.

• Downstairs - two bedrooms, family bathroom/laundry, recreation room or second lounge or work from home, doors out to good kiwi style backyard and huge lawn.

• Good size separate workshop and garage.

Live in this house as-is whilst you work with your architect on the best options for the future.

You may decide to start with a clean pallet, do a grand design and in time reap the rewards - don't miss this opportunity!
