Auction: 34 Shortland Street, City on Wednesday 6 May 2026 at 1:30PM (unless sold prior)
Set back from a convenient main street location and tucked away in a quiet, private rear section, this solid brick and concrete block home offers the rare combination of easy access and rear-section serenity. Enjoy the privacy and quiet you’d expect from a hidden retreat, while still being just steps from all the essentials.
From the moment you arrive, you’ll appreciate the stylish durability and low-maintenance living of a build designed to stand strong for years to come.
Spread across two cleverly separated levels, the upstairs layout features two generous double bedrooms, a bathroom, a separate toilet, and an inviting open-plan living area that flows effortlessly to a balcony and a charming conservatory. Downstairs continues to impress with another two double bedrooms, a second bathroom, and its own open-plan living space with a private entrance, legal kitchen, and sub-meters for water and electricity – all the essential components of a true home and income setup. Previously categorised as home and income, the current owner added an interconnecting door to create one large family home. The original layout, separate meters, and kitchen remain intact. If desired, the property can be converted back to home and income (subject to council approval).
Location-wise, convenience is at your doorstep despite the peaceful setting. Set just a few hundred metres from the SH20 on-ramp, this property offers effortless access to south, west, and north Auckland, as well as the city and the airport – all via smooth motorway connections. Everyday essentials are only minutes away, with Pak’n’Save, New World, and other facilities close at hand.
Perched high on a hill, the home is bathed in all-day sun and boasts wide, open views over the surrounding neighbourhood. Outside, you’ll find a single garage, a carport, and additional off-street parking, plus a fully fenced, private backyard planted with mature fruit trees and native greenery – a peaceful retreat to relax, play, or entertain.
