37 Junction Road, Oneroa, Waiheke Island, Auckland

This tidy, well-appointed property ticks all the boxes for incredible views, great location and sunshine. Close to Palm Beach, with superb semi-rural vistas across Anzac and Putiki Bays and over the gulf to the mainland, this three-bedroom home offers easy living, inside and out. There is flat parking, a generous sized carport and turnaround space on the neat concrete driveway, with easy access to the one-level house.

The main living space with modern kitchen takes in the epic views, off which a huge deck provides ample outdoor entertaining space.

The three double bedrooms, family bathroom with shower and a separate sizeable laundry are to the rear of the main living zone, with the added bonus of a fabulous, sunny, versatile space at the front of the house. Here, bifold doors open to the elements, making it the perfect spot for a home gym or work-from-home solution. To the side is a further delightful patio area for covered outdoor dining.

The beautifully kept gardens with pretty lawn areas bordered by hibiscus and lavender, are wonderful for pottering, but simple enough to be easily maintained, with plenty of room for raised vegetable planters, if desired.

This low-maintenance home is perfect for retirees, families or commuters wanting the convenience of the bus stop and proximity to the village, ferry, or schools.

A much-desired, elevated spot, just a stroll down the hill to one of the best north-facing swimming beaches on the island.
