Find your peace in a stunning slice of heaven on a native bush reserve that feels a million miles from the city. Yet Birkenhead schools, shops and amenities are moments away.
Totally secluded from neighbours, this sundrenched, 1031m2 safe-haven sits in a sheltered forest glade. Enjoy the beautiful drive through the trees to find this wonderful spot, elevated at the top of a private road that few Aucklanders know about.
The appealing gabled, four-bedroom 1980s cedar home is full of lovely character. Timber architraves add warmth while high sarked ceilings lit by French chandeliers, provide a sense of volume and skylights bring light inside from many angles. Visitors step straight into the generous living level which expands from the lounge and family/kitchen area out to decks and a loggia overlooking a pool on a vast terrace. As sun pours across the property in the afternoon, retreat to the pool house to watch children swim.
There are 2 bedrooms and an updated bathroom on the main level. A second living area plus study upstairs catch water views. The master suite is also on the upper level. It includes a walk-through dressing room and large updated ensuite with double shower. The bonus for a family is a fourth versatile bedroom in an independently accessed granny flat with kitchenette on the lower-level opening to the pool. It's your perfect guest, teen or Airbnb accommodation. As well as internal double garaging there's good off-street parking for several cars.
Although the property is relatively low maintenance with decks rather than lawn, there is room to indulge green fingers here or to create a vegetable garden. If you're looking for a sanctuary that is tranquil, beautiful and spacious to raise your family, check out this fabulous bush retreat today.
