They certainly knew how to build them in the 70s – solid, spacious and designed to make the most of an exceptional outlook.

Welcome to 43A James Evans Drive, a beautifully presented three-bedroom home plus rumpus, office and much more, positioned in one of Northcote’s most sought-after streets and enjoying spectacular panoramic views of the Auckland city skyline.

Step inside and the first thing you’ll notice is the sense of space. High ceilings and beautiful panoramic windows fill the home with natural light while perfectly framing those incredible city views. Solidly constructed in the 1970s, this is a home with genuine character, generous proportions and a layout designed for comfortable family living.

At the heart of the home is a beautiful and functional kitchen, well positioned for everyday family life and entertaining. Multiple living areas and the additional rumpus provide plenty of flexibility for families, teenagers, guests or working from home.

The master bedroom is a wonderful retreat, complete with a walk-in wardrobe and beautifully appointed ensuite with the added luxury of heated floors. A family bathroom and laundry downstairs add further practicality, while an additional guest toilet on the second level means visitors are well catered for.

Outdoor living is just as appealing, with a generous front deck and spacious courtyard providing multiple areas for entertaining, summer barbecues or simply relaxing with family and friends. The home was made for socialising, whether the gathering is upstairs, downstairs or outdoors.

Parking is another real bonus. There is an internal-access garage plus three additional off-street car parks, giving you plenty of room for family vehicles and visitors – something increasingly hard to find.

And then there is the location.

You are remarkably close to the city, yet tucked away from its noise and congestion. Enjoy the skyline from home, easy access towards the Harbour Bridge and Onewa Road, frequent public transport, and a fantastic selection of parks, bush walks, beaches, shops and cafés nearby.

Onepoto Domain, Tuff Crater, Kauri Glen, Takapuna Beach and Northcote Shopping Centre are all within easy reach, while Northcote Point, Birkenhead and Takapuna provide plenty of options for dining and entertainment.

After 16 happy years, our owner is ready to pass this much-loved home on to its next family.

Come for the view. Stay for everything else.
