142A Upland Road, Remuera, Auckland City, Auckland

There's much to love about this single-level architecturally enhanced, freehold, mid-century family home. Situated between the picturesque Orakei Basin and the popular Benson Road shops, it's dual zoned for both Grammar schools plus Remuera Primary and Meadowbank School.

Chocolate timber floors abut crisp white walls, and big windows frame a lush green outlook from most rooms. There's a trendy vibe that welcomes you at first, then pulls you through to explore one of the most picturesque and private backyards you could find. As you would hope, the lawn is sun-drenched, deliciously private, and large enough for cricket, soccer, and all manner of games.

If you're seeking proximity to top public and private schools for your kids, needing a manageable single level floorplan, and frustrated by alternatives that require expensive renovations, this is the home you've been waiting for.

The question on your lips will be - it sounds great, but is it affordable? Our sellers have left Auckland - so don't be shy - pre-auction offers are wanted.
