8 Maritime Terrace, Birkenhead, North Shore City, Auckland

Set on approximately 1,000 sq m (more or less) of freehold land in one of Birkenhead Point’s most prestigious streets, this early 1900s villa is a true standout. Rich in character and timeless appeal, it offers an exceptional lifestyle in a sun-soaked garden setting—perfect for families.

Step inside and be welcomed by period features including polished wooden floors, crystal chandeliers and high ceilings. A wide, welcoming hallway greets you as you enter through the front door, setting the tone for the space and charm that continues throughout the home.

The spacious layout offers multiple living zones, including a light-filled open-plan kitchen, dining, and an informal lounge ideal for everyday living —plus a separate formal lounge complete with a traditional open fireplace, perfect for cosy winter evenings and hosting guests. The upper level also features four double bedrooms, a main bathroom, separate laundry and has a ducted heating/cooling system for added comfort.

Wraparound decking connects the home to the outdoors, providing plenty of space for children to play and perhaps enjoy a pool in years to come.

Downstairs, a fully self-contained space includes two additional bedrooms, a bathroom, kitchen/dining, and generous lounge—ideal for extended family, guests, a work-from-home setup, or a teen retreat. There is also generous lockage storage space under the house - perfect for bicycles, tools and equipment.

This is a home with options—move in and enjoy the current comforts, or explore further enhancements or development opportunities. Previously consented plans (which have now lapsed) will assist in shaping the vision for this character-filled, family-sized home.

Located in a highly desirable location, you’re just minutes from popular local eateries, restaurants, scenic walking tracks, Little Shoal Bay, the Birkenhead Ferry Terminal, motorway connections, and top local schools.

Properties of this size and land holding don't come along often —an inspection is highly recommended.
