56 Edmund Street, Saint Heliers, Auckland City, Auckland

This cool classic 1950s family home embodies all the enduring advantages of its era - generous proportions, solid construction and a sense of permanence - beautifully enhanced by thoughtful updates that deliver modern comfort and ease.

Spanning an impressive approximately 282sqm over two levels, the entry level welcomes you with modern open plan living accentuated by polished wooden floors. At the heart of the home is a modern kitchen, complete with scullery, ideal for family life and entertaining. Complementing this level is a separate lounge, three bedrooms (including a single), a family bathroom, guest powder room and a dedicated laundry.

Bi-fold doors open seamlessly from the living area to inviting outdoor entertaining spaces, where the kitchen family living flow seamlessly to the deck, patio, swimming pool and level lawns which are framed by landscaped, low maintenance gardens with established tropical planting - creating a relaxed, holiday resort like atmosphere year-round.

Downstairs is devoted to a master suite retreat, offering a spacious bedroom, adjoining office or sunroom, ensuite bathroom and walk-in wardrobe. Internal access to the double garage is also on this level, along with excellent storage throughout. Modern conveniences include underfloor heating, air conditioning, a pool heat pump and abundant storage.

Perfectly positioned on an elevated 837 site, more or less, the home is located in one of St Heliers’ most desirable streets, just minutes from beaches, parks, village amenities, cafes and restaurants. Zoned for Kohimarama School, St Ignatius School and Glendowie College, this is a superb opportunity for families seeking space, character and lifestyle in a premium coastal setting.
