Auction: 34 Shortland Street, City on Wednesday 13 May 2026 at 10:00AM (unless sold prior)

Behind its classic weatherboard charm lies a home that has been completely transformed to meet the demands of modern living — while unlocking serious future potential.

Positioned in Auckland’s sought-after central suburbs, this extensively renovated and extended five-bedroom, three-bathroom residence offers an exceptional opportunity for both homeowners and savvy developers.

Inside, the home delivers immediate comfort and style. Warm timber flooring softens sleek contemporary interiors, while the open-plan kitchen and dining area forms a true hub of daily living. Large glass doors open seamlessly to a sun-filled balcony, capturing elevated views of greenery and sky — an inviting space for both quiet mornings and effortless entertaining.

The bathrooms are finished to a high standard, featuring full-height tiling and LED mirrors, adding a refined, modern edge throughout. Every element has been thoughtfully designed to ensure the home is move-in ready, with nothing more to spend. Step outside and the value continues. A generous covered deck allows for year-round entertaining, while the expansive backyard provides space, privacy, and flexibility — increasingly rare in central Auckland. What truly sets this property apart is its development upside.

Zoned Mixed Housing Suburban, the rear section already comes with approved Resource Consent, Building Consent, and EPA for a brand-new dwelling.

• Build immediately with minimal delay
• Create a second income stream or resale opportunity
• Or design a multi-generational living setup with strong long-term value

Whether you’re a family looking for a spacious, upgraded home in a prime central location, or a small-scale developer seeking a ready-to-go project with holding income, this property delivers on both fronts.

Live in, landbank, or develop — the choice (and upside) is yours.

Opportunities like this in central Auckland are tightly held and rarely come with approvals already in place.
