17 Norana Avenue, Remuera, Auckland City, Auckland

Living this close to the Remuera Village and its schools is a sure recipe for a more harmonious family life. With the fabulous Siso eatery on the corner - not to mention nearby cafes, supermarket and other obvious local conveniences, your kids can walk safely to Remuera Primary, Kings or Dio. Double Grammar zoning is the icing on the cake in this fabulous location.

With such a deliciously private and sun-drenched backyard, your friends and their kids will all want to hang out at your place, not theirs. Pancake-flat and with more space than you'd expect, the sub-tropical playground with its big pool and in-built spa flows effortlessly from chic and inviting new living areas. You'll appreciate that it faces north-west and bathes in beautiful all-day sun.

Having undergone a painstaking rebuild and a reinvention of epic proportions, the owners transformed an already appealing single level layout, with four or five well-proportioned bedrooms, into the perfect family home.
