16 years ago, this pretty 1880's workingman's cottage villa struck the right note with two professional musicians. Our talented owners have renovated, restored and added on - and the result is a surprisingly spacious 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom split-level home with a delightful garden, and north-west sun deck. There is secure off street parking for 4 cars, plus a generous single garage... Space for the boat maybe?

Alive with character but in-tune with today's requirements, this unique home features a contemporary designer kitchen, living area with leafy outlook, and a master suite (with under-floor heating in the en-suite), opening to the established private garden. Original fireplaces have been retained with one adapted to house a cosy Rinnai gas fire, complementing the endless hot water from the Rinnai gas infinity system. Warm, sunny and quiet - you'd barely know you were in the heart of inner city Auckland, yet you're just minutes from Ponsonby and Jervois Roads and in zone for Ponsonby Primary and intermediate schools. Plus there's potential to offer the current master suite as a guest suite, for a flat mate or Airbnb, while you live the good life upstairs.

A feature of this harmonious Clarence St home is the extensive basement storage available. Every inch of space has been maximized.

Professional couples, first time Ponsonby buyers or those looking for that special mix of contemporary and character - this one's for you.
