21 Tutanekai Street, Grey Lynn, Auckland City, Auckland

Set on a substantial 501sqm of prime freehold land, this superbly maintained character home offers families, professionals with flatmates or investors, an excellent entry point into this highly sought-after pocket of Grey Lynn.

From the street, the home exudes colonial charm with its detailed fretwork, stained glass window and classic wrap-around verandah, providing the perfect spot to relax and watch the world go by.

At the front of the residence is a welcoming lounge that spans the width of the home and sets the tone for what's to come. Follow the native timber floors along the central hallway, past four newly carpeted double bedrooms, to the smart kitchen and dining area at the rear. Step outside, through French doors, to the elevated deck overlooking the mature garden, ripe with feijoa and apples.

At the end of the driveway, separate from the main home, is a freestanding sleepout with its own bathroom, a fantastic addition for guests or utilise this space as a home office or creative retreat.

The children and pets will love the generous lawn and there's off-street parking for three vehicles plus the boat - a rarity in this locale. Or if you prefer, you could reconfigure the sleepout back into a garage.

Move-in ready while still offering plenty of scope to maximise the home's full potential, the position is incredible with West Lynn village at the top of the street and Grey Lynn Park at the other. Stroll along to Honeybones for your morning coffee or grab a drink at Freida's or Gypsy Tea Room followed by dinner at Lillian. On Sunday morning, head to the Grey Lynn Farmers Market for the best fresh produce and delicious baked goods. The location really is impossible to beat.

Don't miss your opportunity to secure this fantastic character property in one of Auckland's most desirable neighbourhoods. Your Grey Lynn dream starts here.

Auction, 6:00pm, Wednesday 26 February, Atomic Kingsland, 420C New North Road, Kingsland (unless sold prior).
