This home stands out in a stand-out location, around 100 metres from a part of Ponsonby Rd that offers everything that a sophisticated urbanite desires. Smell the coffee as you step through french doors to the wide upper verandah. This is a great space to enjoy a cool drink in the evening and people watch.

With contemporary bathrooms and modern improvements the villa is an easy move-in proposition. But it is its colonial past that best defines it. Once in 2 semi-detached terraces, it is today a large family residence with big rooms. An office could easily be a 5th double bedroom. A rare colonial jewel, it retains its classic features: kauri floors, high stud ceilings, an unusual double staircase.

The feel extends to the 480m2 garden, a secret and sunny overgrown garden with charming old shed, peach tree and grapes.

This charismatic home and its dynamic location are worthy of your attention.
