Majestic Villa with Views. Timeless Classic 1012m2
Proudly standing on this prominent near-quarter acre freehold section since 1909 (circa. 1,012 sq metres), this classical single bay villa, offering up to four bedroom accommodations, has stood the test of time. With elevation and views across to Watchman's Island & Herne Bay, Sky Tower and the ever-changing Waitemata Harbour, one can see why this unique property has been in the same family ownership for 82 years. Now it is your turn.
Stepping inside this majestic home, there is a sense of peace and serenity, with all the features of turn-of-the-century architecture and craftsmanship you would expect, such as Kauri weatherboards and flooring, raised high studded walls, sash joinery, leadlights and spacious dual living spaces. Kitchens and bathrooms have been modernised since the days of the coal range, the foundations re-piled, extra insulation added, plus modern heat pump comfort and a healthy home ventilation system. Certainly important features to tick off when buying these special homes.
Living in this prime location amidst quality homes, facilities are so close to the front door, with Birkenhead village within several hundred metres walk. Take a book out of the Library, sip a coffee on Hinemoa Street, wine and dine at a myriad of restaurants, walk to Chelsea Bay & the Sugar Refinery, catch a ferry from the Point nearby or fast-track bus to the City. Kindy and Primary, plus Leisure Centre. Life is so easy here!
This incredible land parcel also includes a detached studio & bathroom at the back, citrus trees and flat ground, with plenty of room to roam, or further options for a minor dwelling or extension of the home - subject to Council's consent of course.
A special property of pedigree and potential. A slice of history - perfect to create your own family's legacy. Do not miss out.
