This is a Mt Eden home that puts space, lifestyle, and everyday family living firmly front and centre — with the village quite literally at your doorstep.
Set behind a striking frontage that thoughtfully integrates Arts and Crafts character with contemporary architectural design, the home has been remodelled and recently refreshed, creating generous, light-filled living that feels both expansive and welcoming.
The main living and dining space is substantial yet relaxed, defined by soaring ceilings and skylights that enhance the sense of light and volume. At its heart sits a well-designed island kitchen, while rich timber floors and a soft, contemporary palette bring warmth and cohesion, blending seamlessly with the home’s original detailing.
Large bi-fold doors extend the living outdoors to a north-facing deck and level lawn, framed by established planting and leafy views toward the mountain. It’s a private, sun-filled setting that works effortlessly for everyday family life and entertaining, ideal as it stands, with scope to evolve over time if desired.
The floor plan is both generous and flexible, offering five well-proportioned bedrooms (or four plus a home office), modern bathrooms, a powder room, and the added advantage of a second living or media room. This is a layout that adapts easily to growing families, teenagers, guests, or working from home, without ever feeling overcomplicated.
Two off-street car parks add everyday practicality, while the location elevates the lifestyle entirely. Step outside to the cafés, shops, and energy of Mt Eden Village just metres away, enjoy easy access to parks and recreation, and benefit from zoning for Mt Eden Normal Primary, Auckland Normal Intermediate, Epsom Girls Grammar and Auckland Grammar. Maungawhau is close enough to feel part of daily life — from morning walks to weekend rituals, and as a constant, grounding backdrop.
A compelling family home in one of Auckland’s most tightly held neighbourhoods, where space, schooling, and village living come together in a way that’s increasingly hard to find.
