The Space:
Enter the property and the first flight of stairs will lead you to the self-contained 1-bedroom apartment. There’s plenty of room to stretch out and there is a large cupboard for your items. A small set of steps lead you to the ensuite which has a toilet, a basin, shower and heated towel rail. From here is the laundry available for use.
The next flight of stairs take you to the main front door, and on entry the first thing you’ll notice will be the gorgeous ornate ceiling detailing and curved walls reminiscent of its era. To the left is the office/ workspace and to the right first large double bedroom, flooded with sunlight and with pretty shuttered windows.
The hallway has original wooden flooring and leads you down to the master bedroom. What a beauty – with a gorgeous bay window, and a delightful peek view of Mt Eden. This is a very large bedroom and has plenty of wardrobe space.
The family bathroom has a soaking tub, shower, toilet and basin, and there’s a separate toilet next to the main bathroom also which adds to the convenience of the home.
The living room is light, warm and spacious. With a Rinnai gas fire you can bet this is a cosy spot during cooler months. Unique pendent light fixtures and vintage furnishings create a truly special ambience in this space. The standout feature of this room is the beautiful marble top dining table – a perfect accompaniment to a dinner party or gathering of friends, and with views through Pohutukawa trees to Mt Eden this is a truly special spot.
The kitchen is separate and open plan with a spacious sun lounge with skylight. You have everything you need to cook up a storm if you are in for the evening. Gas stove top and oven, microwave, fridge dishwasher and wine racks. The informal lounge is a sublime social spot. Throw open the double doors to the terrace and you’re emerged in an absolutely glorious, landscaped garden sanctuary. A true oasis with an abundance of organic fruit trees and sweet little nooks to explore.
This home is perfectly set up for entertaining and has fantastic flexibility for sleeping arrangements.
