Just a stone's throw away from Ponsonby, beautifully proportioned, light and contemporary, this exquisitely renovated four-bedroom villa is located in the heart of Grey Lynn. Conveniently located within walking distance to Ponsonby, Auckland CBD and Newmarket, visit many of the ionic attractions like Sky Tower, Viaduct Habour, and shopping precincts. Indulge in the lively atmosphere of Grey Lynn with a range of cafes, restaurants and bars.
This 19th-century cottage has been brought into the new century and given an update that is stylish and comfortable! The front section of the house, built in the 1890s, is a classic Kiwi villa. It was tastefully renovated and extended in the last decade, maintaining the classic symmetry in the original section of the house, and adding a more modern and industrial bump out at the back.
Entering the house, you find yourself in lovely wide corridors adorned with exquisite Kauri floors and delicate chandeliers. The transition to the newer section is marked by a gradual shift from the classic warmth of Kauri to the sleekness of polished concrete floors in the open-plan living areas.
The well-appointed kitchen boasts high-end Gaggenau appliances and cleverly designed servo-driven cupboards, providing both opulence and practicality. The dining area, bathed in natural sunlight, offers a spacious and inviting atmosphere. Within the open-plan living area, one lounge beckons with ranch sliders that open onto the deck, enhancing the sense of openness and connectivity with nature.
Meanwhile, a second lounge is discreetly tucked away upstairs, adjacent to the main bedroom. This additional retreat space provides a more private and intimate setting, perfect for moments of tranquility away from the main living areas. The main bedroom suite features a light filled ensuite and huge walk-in wardrobe with views through the large windows. With another three queen bedrooms and two bathrooms, you will be spoilt for choice in which bedroom you sleep in.
Nestled in the garden, the spa pool offers a tranquil oasis, strategically positioned to provide a captivating view of the stars at night. The backyard, fully fenced, not only ensures privacy but also offers a secure space for your little ones to play freely. The classic heritage frontage provides strong street appeal and a double off-street car pad with an electric picket fence gate for security.
