This is not your standard bungalow - and you wouldn't want it to be. Set well back from the street on tightly held Alexis Avenue, number 38 presents as classic 1920s and then unfolds into something far more exciting. Renovated, extended and curated by a design-savvy owner, it balances heritage integrity with confident, modern living. We cannot stress strongly enough that this is not a purchasing opportunity to overlook.
- The original character remains intact: stained-glass windows, generous proportions and a sense of history you can feel.
- To the rear, a different world emerges; a substantial living, dining and kitchen domain anchors daily life - social, functional and beautifully executed. Oak built-ins add depth and permanence while statement wallpapers bring personality.
- Accommodation is generous and adaptable; four bedrooms, including a substantial primary, two oversized doubles and another that is ideal for a nursery, guest room or dedicated office. To the front, an additional lounge with concealed study nook has long been the gathering point for kids - so they have a space of their own for play and creation.
- Outdoors is where this home truly separates itself from other offerings on the market - a swimming pool framed by palms and subtropical planting creates a distinctly resort-like atmosphere.
- Extensive decking provides multiple entertaining zones sheltered by a louvred roof ensuring year-round usability. An outdoor fireplace anchors winter evening and citrus trees - lemons, limes, mandarins - and a dedicated rose garden complete the picture.
- You are a few minutes walk from Mount Albert Grammar School, zoned for Gladstone School, and close to Rocket Park, Little French, Westfield St Lukes, and the Mount Albert Aquatic Centre. Public transport is easily accessible, with bus routes and the train station nearby.
Properties like this are tightly held for good reason and will never reveal the value that they will always hold. A peaceful, private and balanced lifestyle awaits for the astute purchaser. Your earliest viewing is recommended.
