If you're searching for a substantial family home with a sun-soaked backyard at an attainable level in sought-after Mount Eden, 63 Marsden Avenue deserves your attention.
What makes this home so special is the sheer amount of space, spread across three generous levels.
At driveway level, you'll appreciate easy off-street parking before being welcomed by the classic bungalow verandah. Inside, a wide central hallway connects two generous living areas, two bedrooms, a family bathroom, and a spacious kitchen and dining hub that forms the heart of the home.
Flowing seamlessly from the living spaces, the expansive north-facing deck overlooks an immense 607sqm freehold site. This is family paradise - a backyard where children can run, play and create lifelong memories, while the spa pool offers the perfect place to unwind beneath the stars on a crisp winter evening.
Upstairs, the sun-filled master retreat enjoys lovely views across the established gardens, while a fourth bedroom provides an ideal nursery, children's room, home office or creative space.
On the ground level, a large basement provides the perfect workshop, hobby space or storage area for bikes, kayaks, camping gear and all the extras that come with family life.
Homes offering this combination of character, scale and land are becoming increasingly difficult to find in Mount Eden. Zoned for sought-after Maungawhau School, as well as Balmoral School and Mount Albert Grammar School, the educational options are outstanding.
What I particularly love about this pocket of Mount Eden is the wonderful community feel. You're moments from the village atmosphere south of Balmoral Road, with local favourites including Pirie's Butcher, Wild Wheat Bakery and By The Bottle all nearby. It's the sort of neighbourhood where life feels easy and connected.
After many happy years here, our owners are pursuing a new lifestyle chapter, creating an exciting opportunity for the next family to secure this much-loved home.
This is brilliant real estate. Large land, classic character, outstanding schooling and an address that will stand the test of time. Don't miss it.
AUCTION: 4pm, Wednesday 1 July 2026. In Rooms - Ray White Mt Eden (unless sold prior)
