28 Tirotai Crescent, Westmere, Auckland City, Auckland

This is the kind of home buyers wait for, a two-storey 1930s weatherboard residence on a sun-drenched 607m2 parcel in Westmere's exclusive peninsula.

Occupying what is undoubtedly one of the city's most enviable positions, the home offers an exceptional balance of privacy, sunshine and effortless entertaining. Set well back from the street and wrapped in greenery, the fully fenced grounds create a peaceful, secluded retreat just moments from the urban buzz.

Beyond the front gate, a covered walkway leads inside where the living zones are thoughtfully arranged to maximise connection with multiple outdoor entertaining areas. A generous living room with gas fire opens to an elevated west-facing deck, spa and lawn, while the open-plan kitchen, dining and sitting area flows seamlessly to a sheltered terrace. A gate provides direct access to Tirotai Reserve, extending your outdoor lifestyle beyond the boundary.

The kitchen is crisp and contemporary, anchored by an elongated island bench and heated concrete floors that introduce a practical, modern edge - ideal for relaxed gatherings and everyday living.

Two bedrooms and a stylish bathroom with separate powder room complete the main level, while upstairs the primary suite is a true sanctuary, positioned to enjoy views across the reserve and upper harbour, complemented by a walk-through robe and ensuite. A second lounge with its own gas fire provides a space for quiet relaxation.

Additional features include double garaging, attic storage and a separate laundry.

Just a short stroll to local favourites Ragtag and Beabea's Bakery along with the award-winning Westmere Butcher, this is a tightly held address that offers privacy, position and long-term appeal in equal measure.
