Whether you're a renovator hunting your next project or a family ready to put down roots and upgrade over time, this charming character do-up is your ticket to creating a superb lifestyle in one of central Auckland's most coveted neighbourhoods.

The original character shines through in stunning Matai floors, leadlight windows and exposed ceiling beams. The generous family-sized floor plan offers four bedrooms (or three plus a separate lounge), a bathroom and two toilets, giving you a solid footprint to work with. Refresh it, reconfigure it, or go all in with a full renovation - perhaps adding an ensuite or second bathroom to really lift its value.

At the rear, a large separate garage with an attached studio and storage room adds real flexibility. Use the studio as a home office, gym, creative space or private teen retreat. Or consider converting the lot into self-contained guest accommodation (subject to the usual Council consents). It's a valuable extra that sets this property apart.

The flat, northwest-facing 546m² site enjoys all-day sun, with plenty of room for outdoor living and future plans. Live in it as it is, restore it room by room as budget allows, or explore the potential of THAB zoning on a regular-shaped site.

An incredible lifestyle sits right on your doorstep:

• Triple Grammar school zoning (AGS, EGGS and MAGS)
• Dining from Dominion Road's famous international eateries to Mt Eden Village cafés and pubs
• Epic events at Eden Park, just a walk away with no parking or transport hassles
• Maungawhau / Mt Eden for your daily exercise, with city-to-sea views from the summit
• Easy commuting via Kingsland and Maungawhau train stations and nearby bus routes

Set among well-kept character homes in a tightly held pocket, this is a diamond waiting to shine.
Bring your builder, bring your imagination, and make your mark on Mt Eden.
