10 Oliver Twist Avenue, Mellons Bay, Manukau City, Auckland

If you like piña coladas and the sound of the birds, If you like peace and quiet and time to be heard, If you love walking beaches and growing your own grapes, Then this is the home you’ve been seeking — So buy me to escape.

Tucked away in a peaceful setting just a short stroll from Macleans Reserve, this inviting multi-level home offers the tranquillity of nature without the upkeep of a lifestyle property. Perfect for couples, downsizers, or retirees seeking comfort, privacy, and space surrounded by greenery.

The open-plan living area sits beneath a high timber ceiling, warmed by a wood burner and opening to a sunny deck overlooking the native bush — a peaceful haven alive with birdsong.

The top level hosts a light-filled master bedroom with a generous ensuite, offering a private retreat at the end of the day. Three additional bedrooms and a family bathroom sit on the mid-level, while a versatile rumpus downstairs provides space for hobbies or a quiet workspace.

Set on a generous section with fruit trees, raised garden beds and your own pocket of private bush, this is your chance to enjoy a simpler, more natural way of living — just minutes from Eastern Beach and Howick Village, and within the Macleans College school zone.
