Some homes simply offer more - built with concrete construction, this is a home where substance is part of the appeal. Add a double internal-access garage, four double bedrooms and a wonderfully generous living space, and you have a property that offers far more than its townhouse appearance might suggest.

At the heart of the home is the big, open-plan kitchen, dining and living area. Modern, spacious and designed for everyday living and entertaining, it has excellent connection to the outdoors, with covered decking extending from both sides. The property enjoys a peaceful semi-rural aspect, with greenery providing a lovely backdrop and the western outlook bringing serene sunsets.

Accommodation is exceptionally well separated across the three levels. The ground floor features a generous double bedroom with its own ensuite and walk-in wardrobe - ideal for guests, extended family or anyone wanting their own private space. Upstairs, the master suite and two further double bedrooms, plus the family bathroom, comfortably cater for the rest of the family.

There's a lot to appreciate here, and all wrapped up in a well-presented, low-maintenance home.

The standouts

• Solid concrete construction
• Large double internal-access garage
• Four generous double bedrooms
• Three bathrooms, including two ensuites
• Ground-floor bedroom with ensuite + WIR
• Spacious modern open-plan kitchen/living
• Covered outdoor living on both sides
• Easy care front garden / courtyard
• Peaceful semi-rural outlook
• All-day sun with stunning sunsets

And while the setting feels wonderfully removed from the hustle and bustle, convenience is close at hand with quick easy access to transport links to the city, with Westfield Albany, Albany Village and Massey University all so close by.

If you're looking for affordable family living, a sensible rental investment or a step onto the property ladder, this should be at the top of your list.
