A rare opportunity in the community-minded neighbourhood of Hillcrest, this three bedroom plus study home is a true slice of paradise in a top location. Built in the 1970s and designed for making the most of the sun, it flows across two easy levels beginning with the heart of the home - the impressive open plan living and dining flowing out to stunning outdoor entertaining.

Cook up a storm in the well spec'd, modern kitchen, then choose from dining options in the sunny separate dining area or on the adjacent generously-sized deck surrounded by lush gardens.Double lounge and living areas also come with great outdoor flow, with doors opening out to an immaculate lawn with raised garden beds, fish pond and covered patio for when you just want to sit back and admire the supremely private space surrounded by native and tropical planting. Also on this level is a sunny guest bedroom and bathroom, alongside a very work from home-friendly office space with plenty of storage.Upstairs has welcoming and organic feel due to the continuing use of warm timber tones so classic of the home's era, and is where you'll find an additional great sized double and the master with walk in robe and double skylight. They share an immaculate bathroom complete with views, and there is extra storage throughout.

Fully fenced with an automated gate and secure single garage as well as extra off street parking, this much-loved home is just so easy to fall in love with. Just minutes from local shops and amenities and zoned for great schools including Sunnybrae Normal, Willowpark and Takapuna Normal, it's also close to transport hubs but seems a million miles away due to its oasis-like feel.

Cherished by the current owner, it's time for another generation to embrace its considerable charms. Private inspections available. CV $1,090,000. Must be SOLD!
