28 Wood Street, Freemans Bay, Auckland City, Auckland

This north facing circa 1880s architecturally remodelled residence sits enticingly within a prestigious neighbourhood on the fringe of Ponsonby's main thoroughfare. With captivating character accents blending seamlessly with meticulously curated renovations completed in 2021, the elegant weatherboard residence nestles enduringly in its covetable urban pocket. Bonus vistas of the city, Rangitoto, and Sky Tower can be savoured from several vantage points in this impressive home.

Recalling the provenance of the era, the home retains the high stud ceilings, sash windows and solid timber joinery creating an abiding sense of quality craftmanship. The upgraded interior harnesses a crisp white palette contrasting with engineered oak flooring - an effective anchor along with exposed timber architraves. Versatile open plan living and dining areas feel light and airy with bifold doors stacking back to reveal wraparound veranda and sunny alfresco terrace dovetailing with secluded lawns. The perfect spot for picnics, pre-dinner drinks or just relaxing in your own company, this inside/outside entertainment zone pivots around a sleek minimalist designer kitchen featuring marble slabs, stainless steel SMEG appliances and direct access to the patio also.

Four generously sized double bedrooms share a breathtaking fully tiled family bathroom. Additionally there's a powder room, separate hideaway laundry and plenty of storage on both floors, with central heating throughout.

A well-established and fenced freehold 503 sqm (approx.) section includes top of the range outdoor sauna, fruit trees and abundant vegetable beds and is safe for pets and children. While there's parking for two cars, amenities are oh so close. This is a property ideal for people who seek tranquillity but also appreciate proximity to popular eateries, boutiques, and trendy bars.
