20 Bellwood Avenue, Mt Eden, Auckland

On a leafy Mount Eden avenue, this elegant and spacious 5-bedroom, 5-bathroom villa takes center stage in a sought-after enclave of lovingly maintained heritage homes. Perfectly positioned to capture all day sun, this stunning property sits elevated on an enviable corner site and benefits from dual entrances - off Bellwood Avenue and Marlborough Street.

Four generous bedrooms (three of which have ensuites complete with walk-in showers and heated floors) are on the main level as is the living room with its beautifully detailed ceiling, fireplace and the family bathroom. The light and bright open plan kitchen and dining flows out to a huge sunny veranda and private, lush green garden. There's even room for a pool!

Downstairs is a super-sized fifth bedroom with ensuite, walk-in wardrobe and own private access ideal for extended family and teenagers. There's a neatly tucked away laundry, garage (currently a home office) and plenty of storage. The HRV system and heating throughout ensure this lovely home stays warm and welcoming all year round.

Already exceptional, this property has potential to add further value and also presents an excellent income opportunity. Currently run as a successful luxury Bed and Breakfast, it offers various income capabilities. Fabulous family home in a highly desirable central Auckland suburb OR... a lifestyle business running a highly regarded Bed & Breakfast OR... AirBnB a room as and when you like - it's up to you!

In zone for great schooling and an easy walk to Eden Park, the vibrancy and flavours of Dominion Road, Kingsland, supermarkets (yes, there's a Farro!) and public transport. Quick and easy access to the City and motorways are a bonus.

For 37 years the owners have loved life at 20 Bellwood Avenue, but now it's time to downsize.
