This 1920s transitional Kauri villa combines classic appeal with an inner-city vibe in this convenient location. With two separate architect designed studios, there are options for working from home or hosting visitors within the compound.

The main house features three generously sized double bedrooms and a study, providing plenty of space for both relaxation and work. The spacious bathroom features ceramic tiles and a rose shower. Year-round comfort is ensured with the addition of insulation, a heat pump and a traditional tiled fireplace in the main living area.

Two timber-clad studios are light-filled, with rich recycled matai flooring that complement the original bungalow's timber floors and create a visually cohesive connection between the old and new.

The deep grey exterior has bold red accented doors and windows, mirroring the vivid pohutukawa and adding a vibrant contrast. Inside the home, the interior is striking. Luxurious black granite countertops spread across a sleek dark kitchen that opens outward to a rear deck.

The garden contains a variety of established plantings including kowhai, pohutukawa, and feijoa trees. A secluded claw-foot bathtub offers a peaceful outdoor mini-retreat.

Conveniently located, the property is just a minute's walk to city-bound buses and a short ten-minute stroll to New Lynn train station, making the city commuting easy.

The unique and inspiring property will not last, so don't delay.
