89A Edmund Street, Saint Heliers, Auckland City, Auckland

Tucked away down a private driveway, yet tantalisingly close to St Heliers village with its cafes, boutiques and beach, lies 89a Edmund Street, a spacious, light-filled home equipped for modern living.

By day it’s a secluded sanctuary, with three private balconies sheltered and bathed in dappled light filtering through the trees and framed by glass balustrades.

Come nightfall it’s your retreat from life’s stresses, with an entertainers’ kitchen offering Bosch appliances, bespoke cabinetry with Häfele fittings. The kitchen flows seamlessly to a dining/living area, as timber floors lead out through bifold doors to a north-facing paved courtyard.

When friends drop by, conversation flows freely on the courtyard embraced by nature. Come nightfall, the surrounding trees complement the stars above. Or move inside to a second living area to catch a movie or keep up with the game. Afterwards, step upstairs, enjoy a soak in the freestanding tub in the main bathroom, then retire to the master bedroom.

At sunrise, awaken to the sounds of the tuis and breezes rustling through the trees. Strategically placed skylights fill the home with natural sunlight while plantation shutters add to the ambience.

Featuring plush carpeting, neutral tones and three bedrooms, it offers space and contemporary style. Aside from the spacious master, the two other bedrooms offer guest or family accommodation, or scope for a home office. The double internal access garage offers secure parking and storage.

Fully renovated, this turn-key, modern 3-bedroom, two-bathroom home leaves you with nothing to do but relax and enjoy.
