Auction: 34 Shortland Street, City on Wednesday 26 August 2026 at 1:30PM (unless sold prior)

If you’ve been looking for a way to step onto the property ladder without compromising on solid construction, space or presentation, this elevated 1960s brick unit is a total hidden gem!

Just one of two on a generous cross-lease site, this unit strikes that perfect, hard-to-find balance of low-maintenance living with genuine room to grow.

The moment you walk inside, you'll notice just how bright and open it feels. The generous floor plan gives you plenty of space to spread out, and because it is brilliantly positioned to capture the sun, the entire home is flooded with gorgeous natural light all day long.

Both bedrooms are comfortable doubles, but the master bedroom is an absolute standout—hugely spacious, featuring a super-sized picture window that frames the light perfectly, all complemented by generous built-in wardrobe storage.

Unlike many properties of this age, the home has been upgraded with fully ducted central heating and cooling, ensuring absolute climate control and perfect temperatures all year round.

While very comfortable and liveable as-is, the home also offers fantastic potential to add future value. The kitchen and bathroom are already charming and functional but also offer a clean canvas for your modern upgrades down the line. Plus, while there is quality carpet running throughout, underneath lies a hidden treasure: original timber floorboards waiting to be polished back to life.

What’s more, ultimate flexibility awaits downstairs. Whether you need secure parking, a dedicated space for weekend DIY projects, or just extra storage solutions, the home’s generous basement footprint has you covered.

Just moments away from both North and South motorway access and a short walk to beautiful Keith Hay Park and Cameron Pool and Leisure Centre, this home offers all the perks of central living. It’s also in zone for some excellent local schools, including Mount Roskill Grammar.

Key Highlights:

• Year-Round Comfort: Fully equipped with a central heating and cooling system, paired with top-tier insulation.
• Solid Construction: Built to last in classic, low-maintenance brick and tile.
• Under-House Garage & Workshop: A massive basement garage and workshop space underneath—perfect for the car, projects, or additional storage.
• Ample Parking: Off-street parking adds convenience and value.
• Brilliant Location: Weekends are sorted when you live this close to a host of amenities and activities. Plus, excellent school zones and motorway access.

Be quick to view—properties with this much to offer are rarely on the market for long!
