128 Gray Avenue, Papatoetoe, Manukau City, Auckland

This unique property started life circa 1856, one of the areas’ original homesteads. Beautifully crafted in solid kauri it has stood the test of time. Remaining faithful to its heritage, it is a wonderful blend of period features yet has been sympathetically updated to provide the comforts of modern living.

Set on 1532sqm (mol) of park-like grounds, the main 2-storey home is perfect for family living with 5 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms (including an ensuite). The entertainer’s kitchen flows through to a formal dining room and spacious lounge. There are also casual spaces to wine and dine. The thoughtful layout means there is ample storage as well as some interesting play spaces for the kids.

There are also two sleepouts, both with their own bathrooms’. These are perfect for the extended family, or you may wish to explore the possibility of Airbnb or as rental accommodation to supplement your income stream.

Parking is no problem with plenty off-street as well as a double garage.

The location is superb, with Kings College, Middlemore Hospital, Train Station and The Royal Auckland and Grange Golf course all within an easy drive.

This special property seeks a special owner. If you’ve been searching for a large family home that offers so much more than usual, then this is a must see. Call for an appointment to view or visit the open homes.
