Step onto the deck, take a breath, and it becomes immediately clear, this is not a typical Auckland home.
Elevated, north-facing and quietly set back from the road, this Birkdale residence feels more like a private retreat than a city address. Surrounded by established bush and immersed in birdsong, it offers a rare sense of calm and seclusion, while remaining surprisingly close to everyday life on the North Shore.
At its heart, open-plan living unfolds beneath a generous stud height, filled with light and a sense of space. These living areas flow seamlessly onto an expansive wrap-around deck, where the outlook is entirely green and private. The setting is forest-like and serene, creating a natural extension of the home, a place where mornings begin with treetop views and evenings are spent unwinding in the spa, completely at one with nature.
Three bedrooms are thoughtfully arranged, led by a peaceful master suite that feels removed from the world. Waking to tranquil bush views, with a fully renovated ensuite featuring underfloor heating, the master is a true retreat. A beautifully renovated family bathroom, also with underfloor heating, a separate toilet, and a separate laundry add both comfort and everyday practicality.
A comprehensive building inspection report is available, and buyers are warmly welcomed to do their own due diligence for complete peace of mind.
The landscaped gardens have been carefully curated to feel like a private oasis, sheltered, serene and easy to maintain. Two heat pumps, full insulation and fibre connectivity ensure modern comfort all year-round, while a large single garage with workshop space and generous storage throughout provide excellent functionality, including space to securely accommodate a boat or campervan. Despite its retreat-like atmosphere, the location remains exceptionally convenient. Eskdale Road offers easy access to Birkenhead, Glenfield and key transport routes, with local shops, cafes, coastal reserves and bush walks all within easy reach, the perfect balance of connection and escape.
Lovingly held for 17 happy years, the owners are now building their next chapter, presenting a rare opportunity to secure a home that has been genuinely cared for. Private, elevated and bathed in northern light, this is a residence that reveals its quality quietly and once experienced, is genuinely difficult to leave.
Please contact Jo or Jenna to arrange a private viewing or we look forward to seeing you at the open home.
