Here, on this sunny corner site, the day starts one of two ways. Either slowly on the north-facing deck, coffee in hand, beneath the extra-large louvred roof system or with a walk to the local school, the kids running ahead and stopping to pat every dog and cat along the way. Either way, it's a lovely start and wide sliders open the living space straight onto the deck so inside and out feel like one.

By nine, the street is alive. A neighbour stops for a chat on their way to the local dog park and familiar faces wave from across the road. In the Catalina Precinct this is simply everyday life: friendly, safe and a place where people look out for one another.

Life is easy here and that's what gives you time together. The home is low-maintenance and everything you need is close by, including local schools, the Catalina Bay restaurants, sports and kids' activities, and the Hobsonville or NorthWest shops. There's no lawn to mow and no long drives to fill the weekend, just more time for the things you love. Some head for a play at the Water Park first or stroll to Te Onekiritea / Bomb Point Reserve, while others lace up for the weekly Saturday Park Run or the 5km coastal walkway loop just a minute from your door.

Saturdays mean a stroll to Catalina Bay for the Farmers Market, a coffee by the water and catching up with friends. When the city calls for work, lunch or a show, the ferry is a short walk away.

Back home, this quality GJ Gardner build in immaculate condition delivers comfort every day. Ducted air conditioning keeps every bedroom just right, especially in summer. With two living areas, there's room for the family to spread out, room to host when the grandchildren visit and room to find your own quiet corner. The everyday details are thoughtfully sorted too, with a downstairs toilet for guests and a separate laundry inside the home, not tucked away in the garage. Peace of mind comes as standard, as the home comes with a transferable build guarantee.

Being a corner home, there's a garden on both sides of the house, so there's always a spot to sit, whether that's morning sun on one side or a shady afternoon read on the other. As evening falls or the weekend comes around, friends arrive for a barbecue or a glass of wine in the garden. If a shower rolls in, the deck louvred roof system's rain sensor closes the louvres automatically and the evening carries on. The deck is your extra outdoor room, not limited by the four seasons in one day weather.

Our vendors have loved every moment of this Hobsonville Point community lifestyle, and they're only selling because a new job adventure is taking them to the South Island. Their move is your opportunity to step straight into the life they've enjoyed here.

Whether you're growing your family or downsizing the effort without downsizing the lifestyle, 16 Skylark Road is ready to turn it on for you.
