30 Sprott Road Kohimarama, Auckland City

On the prime land where Kohimarama was originally settled, this huge 1472m2, north-facing property gains sweeping top of the ridge' views across the harbour to Rangitoto Island from both levels. On a clear day you can see right to the Coromandel. The substantial, recently refreshed home in a beautiful secluded garden was built in the early 1960s. This is the first time it has been on the market, which makes this opportunity even more special. With such an uninterrupted, backdrop, entertaining family or friends is magnificent in large sunny living areas upstairs and down, around the generous newly refurbished pool or on the deep balcony. Having two open-plan kitchen/living areas adds versatility. You can host your own guests upstairs without distraction while teens have their friends over and amuse themselves in the lounge (with gas fire) below. The layout is ideal for those with extended family, elderly relatives or even for Airbnb as an income. Interiors are flooded with light and the mood is relaxed, as if you're on holiday with the glass sliders open wide to the sun. As well as triple car internal garaging there is parking for at least five cars off-street for visitors. The property is surrounded by other large, well-established, leafy land-holdings, so the sense of space and calm are divine. Step into a slice of family heaven.
