About this property

Country in the city

  • Summary:

    An architecturally designed 3 bdm home (completed in December 2020) offering all day sun (north facing) that overlooks a 50 hectare bush park with regenerating native forest. The home provides a feeling of country in the city. Sunny, peaceful and private. The Park includes nature trails, picnic tables, tennis club, golf course and thriving native birdlife thanks to a predator-control programme. An easy stroll through the park and down the road to more than one beautiful sandy beach.



    The Space:

    The house has double glazed windows and is well insulated. A large wrap around timber deck (with handrails) that connects with the dining / living areas provide good indoor / outdoor flow. Steps lead from the deck to the park and walking trails beyond. The outdoor space (lawn, gardens and deck) are fully fenced.



    The Neighborhood:

    There are multiple (very good) cafes within 3 kms. The Milford Mall and shopping centre (incl 2 large supermarkets) is 3 kms away on a bus route. The bus stop is opposite the property driveway.

    Mairangi Bay shopping centre is 2 and half kms away (also on a bus route.)

    A primary school playground is opposite the property driveway.

    The park (beside the dwelling) includes tennis courts, a golf course, walking trails through the bush.

    Multiple sandy beaches are within walking distance.



    Getting Around:

    Bus to the CBD or throughout the North Shore. The bus stop is opposite the property driveway
