* RARE 1576m² FREEHOLD DEVELOPEMENT *

Hidden at the end of a private driveway, this much-loved family home offers a peaceful and private setting rarely found so close to the conveniences of Hillcrest. Once you pass over the gentle rise from Glenfield Road, the traffic noise fades away, the breeze settles, and you discover a tranquil retreat with beautiful views towards Rangitoto Island and the Hauraki Gulf.

Built and lovingly owned by the same family since 1954, this special home has been the heart of family life for over seven decades. Now, for the first time, a new owner has the opportunity to continue the story and create the next chapter of this unique property.

Set on a substantial 1,576m² (more or less) freehold site, the property offers exceptional flexibility — enjoy the existing home, renovate and extend, secure a long-term landholding, or explore future development potential (subject to council approval).

Located within Residential – Mixed Housing Suburban and Mixed Housing Urban zones under the proposed PC120 provisions, the site is surrounded by proven development activity, with neighbouring land successfully transformed into five standalone homes.

The home features:

• Three bedrooms plus a separate study
• Separate toilet, bathroom and shower
• Traditional separate kitchen
• Spacious dining and living areas
• Large sunroom opening to an expansive deck
• Elevated Rangitoto and sea views

A rare combination of privacy, history, land size and future potential - a true Hillcrest hidden gem ready for its next generation.
