This stand-out character home has grown with one family for over 34 years and is now tailor-made for you and yours, being loveable and liveable as is, and yet with further potential to improve and personalise.
A second level and balcony was added in 2008, giving the home two living areas, an office nook, four bedrooms and two bathrooms, with the bonus of a separate toilet and shower downstairs.
Glowing rimu timber floors have been retained; walls are light and neutral. The kitchen dates from 2013 and includes a coffee nook and gorgeous rimu feature benches.
The home is instantly welcoming as you enter under mature trees through a lush established garden and discover a spa pool, garden pond and other great outdoor spaces to utilise for your family and pooch. You will love watching the sunsets and city lights over the Orakei Basin from the comfort of your own balcony.
Storage has not been over-looked. As well as built-in cupboards in the garage and laundry, there are not one but two attic spaces. A practical garden shed awaits your mower and tools. When all else is full, the space under the house delivers.
Naturally there is a security system, including a monitored smoke alarm for added peace of mind and external security cameras you can access from your phone.
Teens now drivers? Never fear, there are three secure off-street car parking options; an exceptionally spacious single internal access garage, a single carport and a formed carpark behind the front automatic gate for that third vehicle.
The elevated location above Orakei Basin is handy to beaches, several large green spaces and off-lead dog parks, Eastridge Shopping Centre, Orakei Bay Village and the train station offering a quick trip to the CBD.
Preschoolers are well catered for at Orakei Kindergarten or Montessori. Older kids can head for Orakei Primary and Selwyn College; although you are also handy to Saint Joseph’s, Kings Prep, Saint Kentigern School and Baradene.
Orakei Bay Village, a dog-friendly precinct is great for movies, socialising and the beginning of great walking and cycling trails. Foodies will love the Farro store and OBV eateries. Just a couple of minutes further along is Mission Bay, where everyone in Auckland wants to be in summer!
Picnicing, swimming, sailing and kayaking are right on your doorstep at Okahu Bay. Bigger boating dreams are accommodated at OBC or Orakei marina. Water skiing is possible almost every day on Orakei Basin. Within Orakei you will also enjoy the friendly tennis and rugby clubs.
So why is this desirable Orakei home for sale? The now sole owner is reluctantly downsizing and hopefully moving closer to grandchildren. The next chapter can be yours to write. Come home.
