Some townhouses make you compromise. This one gives you plenty of reasons not to. Located on the boarder of Buckland's Beach and Highland Park.
Positioned at the front corner of a boutique block of just five, this three-bedroom townhouse offers a combination of space, light, location and ownership advantages that is hard to overlook.
Step inside and the sense of space is immediate. The open-plan living and dining area is generous, beautifully presented and filled with natural light, with large windows drawing sunshine into the home throughout the day. Timber-look flooring adds warmth, while the modern kitchen sits seamlessly within the living area.
The living space extends outdoors to a covered patio, creating a sheltered spot for morning coffee, weekend entertaining or simply enjoying some fresh air. It is a genuinely useful extension of the living area and one you can enjoy whatever the weather.
Upstairs, three bedrooms provide comfortable accommodation, including a main bedroom with its own ensuite. A second full bathroom serves the remaining bedrooms, while a separate toilet downstairs adds convenience when guests are over.
The corner position is another point of difference, bringing excellent natural light and a little more breathing room than you might expect. A pre-installed heat pump provides year-round comfort, and the allocated carpark takes care of off-street parking.
Then there is the ownership structure.
Freehold. No Body Corporate levy. No Residents' Society fees.
With approximately 109sqm of land and around 87sqm of internal living, you get a practical amount of space without the additional ongoing fees often associated with townhouse living.
For families, the location adds another significant advantage. The property sits within the highly sought-after Macleans Primary and Bucklands Beach Intermediate school zones, with Pakuranga College also within the school zone.
Beyond the school run, everyday life is equally convenient. Howick Village, Highland Park Shopping Centre, Half Moon Bay Marina, local beaches, public transport and a wide range of amenities are all within easy reach. At the same time, the surrounding neighbourhood offers the established, family-friendly environment that makes this part of East Auckland so popular.
For buyers considering the investment potential, a rental appraisal of approximately $700-$750 per week provides a useful indication of the home's rental prospects.
Whether you are looking for your first home, a place to grow into, or an investment with strong fundamentals, this townhouse deserves more than a quick look.
This is the kind of home that makes sense from more than one angle and deserves to be seen in person.
