Tucked away just off St Andrews Road in an unexpectedly charming and secluded haven is the ideal setting to call home. A mid-century bungalow of 4 or 5 bedrooms sitting on an elevated 671 m2 with cul-de-sac frontage. An appealing family home, framed by mature natives, birdsong and with sunshine from dawn till dusk. The outlook is special too. Cosy and comfortable now. Simply move in and enjoy. The outdoor living deck and rear lawn provide areas for relaxation and entertainment.

After 50 years it is now your turn.

A nicely upgraded character bungalow in a prime enclave with tantalising options for family and business. Located a few meters from beautiful Cornwall Park and a stone's throw from Cornwall Park District School. Close too to Remuera Intermediate. Handy to motorway interchange and train.

This 959 m2 property is securely and privately sheltered behind a brick wall and mature green belt in its corner position adjoining Greenlane Road. This position affords excellent street signage profile for the buyer looking to work from home. Another plus is the ample off-street parking and a garage with remote opener.

Inside the house has a 'Master Chef' granite kitchen with dining space which spills out onto a generous entertainer's deck and a quiet private back lawn. There are even 3 modern bathrooms.

Yes, it is leasehold, otherwise the price would be in the millions. The ground rent of just under $30,000pa ($573pw) and is fixed for the next 13 years. Wow! And the lease is reviewable every 21 years thereafter.

Here is a remarkably low-cost way of living the good life in a prized central location for less than rent. That's got to make you think. Talk to Tony today for wide ranging expert advice.

An exciting surprise. Huge at near 3000 square feet. You will love the location just a few minutes walk from one of Auckland's loveliest beaches and chic cafes. Admire the view of sea and sails.

The view potential is phenomenal, if the exciting development potential is adopted. The position is particularly private and charmingly Titirangi like in this mature green leafy privileged neighbourhood. Nice to be neighbours with the Governor General. It is a mere 2 minutes walk to Auckland Grammar. On the 1580 m2 lavishly sized level site is a 287 m2 well maintained contemporary home, a 60 year old brick and tile classic. The options are obvious - to live happily in the house or to remodel the house or to build afresh 2 or more properties within the constraints of the Unitary Plan. Fronting the private lane is a new stone wall with a remotely operated gate. The security is excellent.

As a life time local resident and past Grammar teacher he knows the area and its history intimately. Tony's enthusiasm and warmth, his integrity and perseverence, as....

MODERN HOME - HUGE, ELEVATED AND SECURE PLUS EXCITING DEVELOPMENT POTENTIAL Like a modern day castle atop a commanding vantage promontory is this brick and tile beauty. It offers tons of space, wide views and fortress like security. The wide vista embraces the City skyline, the surrounding volcanic cones and a peep view of the harbour. The enthusiast may want to capitalise further on the magnificent view and add another storey. Such an outlook would be really enthralling. Here is a truly large family home with spacious living, lots of bedrooms, a study and garaging/parking for a fleet of vehicles. All this is set on an elevated 777m2 platform positioned up an easy driveway from the road frontage and behind remotely controlled security gates. The family will love the pool. Under the Unitary Plan the property is zoned mixed housing suburban. This means that there is likely potential for an exciting 2 or 3 house development. Of course it would be a shame to remove the present house. But the aspect is so good. A preliminary scheme work has been commissioned by the vendor.

URGENT SALE. Please disregard previous price ranging. Make an offer. Send buyers through open homes if you wish.
