Tucked behind established gardens, this beautifully presented cedar weatherboard home is more than first meets the eye, with valuable extra space that's hard to find.

Freshly painted throughout and with a recently renovated kitchen, it's ready to move into and enjoy. The open-plan kitchen, dining and living area opens to covered decks at both the front and rear, giving you options for entertaining, enjoying a meal outdoors or relaxing in the private spa after a busy day.

The lush gardens create a peaceful, private setting, making it easy to forget you're just minutes from everything Mt Eden has to offer.

Adding even more versatility is the converted garage with its vaulted ceiling. Whether you're looking for a home office, workshop, business space, creative studio or rumpus room, it's the kind of extra space that can adapt as your needs change.

All three bedrooms are positioned upstairs, creating good separation from the living spaces below. A family bathroom upstairs and a guest powder room downstairs make everyday living practical and convenient.

From here you're just minutes from the vibrant eateries and supermarket at Mt Eden Quarter, with Eden Park, Kingsland and Ponsonby all close by. Public transport and motorway access make getting around easy, while zoning for Mt Eden Normal, Kowhai Intermediate and Mt Albert Grammar adds to the home's long-term appeal.

Whether you're buying your first home, looking for an easy-care property or wanting a home with room to work, create or simply spread out, this is a home that offers more than you might expect.
