First time on the market in 31 years, those in search of an affordable character home on a full north-facing section on the Mt Eden/Sandringham border must inspect!

Perfectly preserved and lovingly cared for by the present owners, what you have here is a "do-up" in the cosmetic sense of the word. On offer are 3 double bedrooms, a beautiful lounge with cosy fire, great open plan kitchen and dining zone and spades of potential. The circa 1980s bathroom is actually immaculate and for those looking for a family home no doubt a sweet reminder of bath time in the 1980s!

I just love the "dolls house" in the backyard, ripe for a makeover this could make a brilliant toolshed or outdoor study. In addition there is easy offstreet parking down the eastern side and a good sized garage.

The pancake flat backyard is a dream for those with young kids and of course for those wanting to expand further the 613m2 site will prove a treasure of an opportunity.

In zone for MAGs, Auckland Girls Grammar, Edendale Primary and Balmoral Intermediate, great schooling is assured, while there is a vibrant village on either end of the street - Dominion Road's famed China Town at one end and the spice and flair of Sandringham Village at the other. A cool local cinema and of course St Lukes Shopping Mall add to the local amenities.

It is rare to find a bungalow of this vintage so beautifully kept and loved. Many happy family days have been had here by our current owners but having now bought, it is time to pass this gem of a home to someone else.
