AUCTION Thursday 10am at 50 Remuera Road, Newmarket.

This modern, weatherboard home with an easy-care Freehold section has a wonderful connection to nature with its open leafy outlook and access to the water. Breathe a sigh of peace and satisfaction when you arrive home and take a short stroll through a well-tended nature reserve, down to the water where you can laze on the jetty, take the kayak out or watch your kids and dogs play.

There is plenty more room for kids to run in the school playing field while you keep an eye on them from the house, and you can hire a key for their swimming pool too.

2 bedrooms have ensuites including the downstairs bedroom with sliding doors out to its own deck. An extra room could be used as an office or a fifth bedroom. Plenty of storage including a shed. With plenty of off-street parking the garage has been repurposed for more storage and as a workshop, but the partition is easily removed and restored to a spacious double garage.

Every room gets some sun in this warm, dry house. There are two decks with different aspects and the choice of sun or shade at any time of day. The owners have made significant improvements to the home and it is in an excellent state of maintenance. They have loved the specialness of this location and the comfortable size of this house, and the wonderful convenience for the whole family with a bus service and an arterial route at the end of the street. And now it is your good fortune that they are moving on and out of central Auckland.

Please come to the open homes at 11-11.45am Sat & Sun or call Kim 021 0822 1922 for a viewing.
