On a leafy avenue just a short walk from the beach, this architect designed freestanding townhouse in a row of three offers a rare opportunity in this sought after neighbourhood. Until recently used as a city base when the owners were in town, the tidy two storey weatherboard dwelling could similarly suit like-minded folk. Located in a community famous for its sophisticated coastal atmosphere, the freehold property offers investors, small families, and downsizers a prime opportunity to refurbish and add value.

The centrally heated 135 sqm (approx.) interior is in original yet tidy condition with many of the elements typical of the 1980s era retained throughout. The home comprises of a spatial generosity primarily on the upper level where high raked rimu timber ceilings dominate open plan entertainment spaces. Banks of ranch sliders in both the dining room and lounge access a north facing balcony with tantalising view shaft of Rangitoto Island's summit. With its own island vista, the retro Carlsson kitchen is dual galley in layout with laminate benchtops, double wall oven and lots of cabinetry. A double bedroom/study opening directly off the lounge has its own balcony, built in shelving, and an ensuite. With door to the rear courtyard, the main bedroom on the ground floor boasts walk in closet and large ensuite with shower over bathtub and a bidet. A sizable single garage is internal access and has a back door to the garden also.

The flat and fenced 244 sqm (approx.) section is largely low maintenance with cobblestone finish to parking space, driveway and backyard terrace, while foliage and mature trees envelop and shelter the dwelling. In zone for nearby Kohimarama School and with the bus stop outside, this conveniently addressed property is handy for bars, cafes, and restaurants and close to Eastridge Shopping Centre up the hill.
