Privately positioned, freestanding, and impeccably finished, this is over-60s living elevated to an entirely different level. Set in a tidy, tightly held location just moments from Northlands, Papanui’s shops and everyday conveniences, 70 Mary Street offers the kind of refined comfort and “nothing to do” luxury that is seldom available.
From the moment you step inside, the quality is unmistakable. The fully tiled bathroom is a statement in style and practicality—featuring a sleek wet-floor shower, underfloor/tile heating and an indulgent bath for long, relaxing evenings. The master suite is a sanctuary in its own right: generous in scale, beautifully appointed, with a large wardrobe complete with built-in shelving, and sliding doors that open outdoors for an effortless indoor-outdoor connection.
A brilliantly designed second bedroom (or elegant extension of the living area) sits behind a cavity slider—perfect for guests, a home office, or simply creating a more expansive entertaining space. It too is finished with a built-in wardrobe and shelving.
The kitchen is exceptional — quality Fisher & Paykel appliances, thick stone benchtops, and a sophisticated breakfast bar that invites effortless entertaining and everyday enjoyment.
Sunlight fills the living space, flowing out to a beautifully landscaped, boutique-style garden designed for low maintenance and maximum pleasure. Enjoy the crisp concrete patio, a smart/artificial lawn, and curated planting including jasmine screening for privacy, a established lemon tree, plus a maple and magnolia for seasonal colour. A charming pergola completes the picture—your own private setting for warm afternoons and quiet mornings.
With internal access garaging, off-street parking, double glazing, a heatpump, and a new mains hot water cylinder, this home delivers year-round comfort with absolute ease.
Quite simply: this is not just a regular over-60s unit—this is a special offering that may well be one of the best units you will see.
