25 Goring Road, Sandringham, Auckland City, Auckland

Gloriously Art Deco, set on a generous 613m² site, and wrapped in sun, space and soul. This is city living at its most whimsical and romantic.

There is something deeply special about this home. Elevated and light filled, it offers what so few city homes can. A true backyard. A sense of calm. And a way of living that feels abundant and grounded, yet firmly connected to the joy of Auckland city life.

Step outside and discover your own flourishing food forest. Grapes trail along the fence line, guava, lime, plum, apple and peach trees quietly do their thing, and suddenly life feels a little slower, a little richer. It is the good life, lived well. Self sufficient in spirit, yet moments from village life, maungas and the vibrant rhythm of the city.

From the street, the classic brick and tile Art Deco façade is timeless and welcoming. Step inside and find two oversized double bedrooms and two generous living areas create space to gather and retreat. The kitchen and dining zone flows effortlessly to a sun soaked deck, perfect for long lunches, late evenings and family celebrations. Downstairs is a dream for those who love space with purpose. A huge workshop and garage, a separate office, a dedicated laundry and room to create the ultimate utility zone. There is even space to tuck away a future sauna! While the existing sauna will not remain, the possibility is already there, waiting.

Original Art Deco detailing adds layers of charm throughout. Curved plasterwork, a beautiful fireplace, genuine Art Deco lighting and a blush pink tiled bathroom feel nostalgic, elegant and quietly luxurious. It is pretty perfect just as it is, yet the potential here is undeniable. The site, elevation and position invite future extension and architectural ambition, with the opportunity to create something truly remarkable, even capturing views toward Mount Eden. Zoned for Balmoral School, Mount Albert Grammar School and Auckland Girls' Grammar, this is a home that grows with you and rewards you over time. A true place with feeling. Sun filled, soulful and full of promise.

Love where you live.
