Situated mere steps from the action on Ponsonby and Jervois Roads while boasting uninterrupted views across Waitemata Harbour from the Harbour Bridge to Rangitoto, this immaculate four bedroom townhouse offers low maintenance luxury in a truly enviable location.

Flowing effortlessly across three levels, the home opens on the ground level with a spacious guest bedroom, laundry with toilet and vanity, as well as internal access to double garaging with room for storage for taking care of all the extras. All come with doors leading out to a generous courtyard with low maintenance planting, and more than enough room for the barbecue and the dog. There is also potential to transform the bedroom into a considerable work from home space.

Stairs lead to two great sized double bedrooms with abundant wardrobing, sharing a pristine family-sized bathroom with separate bath. The spacious master naturally sports an ensuite as well as double wardrobes and even a peek of the ocean.

Clearly laid out with entertaining in mind, open plan living occupies the entire top floor to take full advantage of the breathtaking views that encompass the Harbour Bridge, Rangitoto and more. There is a true gourmet's kitchen in place, with premium appliances and storage. Whip up a meal for friends while they watch the twinkling lights of the harbour, or head just metres to enjoy Ponsonby Road's world class dining.

With heat pumps on each level and the security of automatic gates and an intercom, this brick and weatherboard home in a contemporary boutique block is also body corporate-free, making for a very attractive proposition in an inner central sweet spot. Just ten years old, you can forget the high maintenance villa - this is urban living done well.
