Located on one of Narrow Neck’s best streets, this classic bungalow has been masterfully renovated and expanded for family life, with functionality as well as beauty at the forefront of the design. It’s a ‘new old’ home and was essentially rebuilt in 2012, incorporating wall insulation and double glazing. The home has been maximised for easy living and entertaining, as well as creating generous storage solutions throughout. Watch the video now to get a feel for what life is like in this home.
North Ave is a tightly held, family friendly neighbourhood with a genuine community feel. The leafy street loved for its proximity to everything that makes the area so special, which are all just an easy stroll from home, including Narrow Neck and Cheltenham beaches, Waitemata Golf Club, Wakatere Boating Club, Devonport Squash Club, Vauxhall School and the Vauxhall shops and eateries. Devonport village and CBD ferry, are also within walking distance.
The home offers a generous layout that is perfectly suited to family living and heritage features are brought to life with modern coastal style. The open plan lounge, dining and well-equipped kitchen is warmed by the gas fireplace in winter, while bifolds create a seamless connection with the large north facing deck and spa area. Mature landscaping makes it wonderfully private and a focus on low maintenance design makes it very easy care.
The separate double garage has been thoughtfully reconfigured into a sunny second living space/kids chill out zone, with wall of bifolds creating an easy connection with the main residence. At the rear, secure storage is available for all the toys – paddleboards, bikes and golf clubs – and there is off-street parking for two cars.
On the ground floor, two bedrooms share a bathroom and a cavity slider closes off this area when required. Upstairs incorporates two bedrooms with ensuites, including the restful master retreat, as well as the purpose-built office.
The vendors have secured their new home just around the corner, so don’t miss your opportunity to enjoy life by the beach this summer.
