There’s something inherently calming about living beside water - and from this elevated north-west facing position, the tidal Whau River becomes a daily backdrop of light, movement and reflection. As the sun drops each evening, sunsets shimmer across the still water, creating a sense of calm that’s hard to replicate.
Set on a generous 860m² section with an unusually wide 23m frontage, this beautifully presented 1960s home offers a rare balance of lifestyle and future potential. The home itself is compact and easy to live in, with 3 bedrooms and 1.5 bathrooms, ideally suited to downsizers, professional couples, small families or those seeking a low-maintenance alternative without giving up outlook or space outdoors.
At the heart of the home, a generous kitchen connects effortlessly to the wide, covered veranda - a relaxed, coastal-inspired space reminiscent of a Queenslander, where mornings are slow and evenings are best spent watching the light change over the river.
While the home is immaculate and move-in ready, the wide frontage and elevated setting open the door to future possibilities. Buyers may choose to extend, reconfigure, or elevate the home over time to further capitalise on the aspect and views.
For those drawn to water, sunsets, and simplicity, this is a home where lifestyle leads - and everything else can follow.
