16 Sheridan Lane, Freemans Bay, Auckland City, Auckland

Some homes arrive on the market and feel ordinary. This one doesn't.

For fifty years this solid 1970s concrete-block terrace house has quietly belonged to the same family in Freemans Bay. Now, for the first time, it is ready to welcome new hands and new dreams.

Built the proper way - reinforced steel, concrete block, insulated walls - it is the kind of home that was made to last lifetimes. North-facing and sun-drenched, it already has that lovely golden light that fills every room. Add underfloor heating, a flexible floorplan that works beautifully as-is or invites you to reimagine it, and the simple freedom of freehold title (no body corporate, no rules but your own).

Step outside and the living continues. Front and rear courtyards catch the sun all day. At the back, a 1/24th share of a carefully tended common park gives you your own green sanctuary right in the city. There's a single garage plus extra off-street parking, and useful storage for bikes, tools, and all the things that make a house feel like home.

The location is pure gold. You're tucked into a quiet, tree-lined pocket with established neighbours, yet only minutes from Freemans Bay School and public transport. In-zone for Ponsonby Intermediate, Auckland Girls' Grammar and Western Springs College. A short stroll takes you to the Viaduct, Wynyard Quarter, Britomart or up to Ponsonby Road. Motorway access is right there when you need it. This is central living at its most gracious.

Homes like this simply do not come along often. Move straight in and enjoy the solid bones and sunny soul of the place, or dream big and transform it into something spectacular. Either way, the chance is here - and it won't wait forever.

Come and feel it for yourself at the open homes, or call Carmen for a private viewing. We'd love to show you around.
