Auction: 34 Shortland Street, City on Wednesday 25 February 2026 at 10:00AM (unless sold prior)
This beautiful 1930’s family home on a freehold title in the heart of Kohimarama retains the elegant character features of the time whilst showcasing the very best of stylish contemporary living.
The home comprises both a main family home and a dedicated legal home and income apartment with its own entrance and balcony. The arrangement offers you additional income as well as space for visiting family. As a bonus, there is provision for the two spaces to combine to achieve a very generous 4 bedroom, 4 bathroom, 2 living home if that is your choice - the very ultimate in flexibility!
Both the main home and the apartment are immaculately presented.
Warm honey-coloured polished wooden floors welcome you and hint at the delights within.
The open plan living, dining and kitchen areas are sunny, open and airy and the elevated site makes the most of the panoramic harbour views. Off the kitchen, the butlers pantry is so well equipped with a coffee machine, oven, dishwasher and over-size sink that it operates as a second kitchen.
The living flows easily to a landscaped northfacing outdoor entertaining garden with a cosy fireplace, and alfresco all season dining with louvretec shelter. There is plenty of room here for the littlies to whizz around on their bikes.
The master bedroom with its luxurious en suite and walk-in wardrobe opens out to the garden. Another bedroom and bathroom completes this level. The third bedroom of the main home is on a lower level. This bedroom has its own bathroom and even a mezzanine floor.
A large carpeted internal access double garage, separate laundry and a multi use space - (workshop/hobby room/ storage) complete the lower level.
The location is ideal too - just a short stroll from Madills Farm for cricket with the family or dog walking; a little further and you are at the beach and waterfront cafes. A regular bus service makes quick work of your commute to the CBD.
This property is zoned for the sought after schools of Kohimarama School, St Ignatius, Selwyn College and Baradene.
The current owners have loved living in this gorgeous home and it is only overseas work commitments which tear them away.
This is an exceptional opportunity for the next fortunate family to enjoy. Be quick to view. It will not last long.
