31D Ngake Street, Orakei, Auckland City

This superb upscaled double glazed weatherboard home is situated in a prime post code. Set back from the road in an exclusive enclave the recently rebuilt like-new home nestles in a desirable neighbourhood surrounded by other prestigious homes.

A sense of European flair creates an elegant minimalism throughout the thoughtfully configured 196sqm (approx.) two storey residence. Timber has been harnessed for flooring and some entry foyer vertical batten elements imbuing the interior with a smooth, sophisticated ambiance. The separate living area has a heat pump and flush sill slider access to a private northwest facing deck for alfresco entertaining. Adjoining this, an open plan communal dining area merges with the spectacular kitchen exiting out to a patio. With smooth aesthetic, marble tile back splash, and Bosch appliances this chic designer hub incorporates an ample scullery equipped with more storage, second hob and another butler sink. A landing nook suitable for study or office use sits upstairs where slumber regions share two gorgeous monochromatic bathrooms. All four double bedrooms have built in robes while the west facing master has step-down separation, trendy ensuite bathroom, walk in closet and secondary built in wardrobe. The stylish guest powder room sits alongside internal access double garaging which integrates the laundry.

The freehold 300 sqm (approx.) section has some off-street parking and is in zone for Selwyn College and Orakei School. Public transport is nearby for students travelling further afield, and bay beaches are close by. A short commute to the city and minutes from Eastridge Shopping Centre for supermarket and essential services. The home is vacant to meet the relocation timeline of growing families, busy professionals, or the active mid-life couple.
