Positioned at the top of Ayr Street on a generous 870sqm elevated site, this is a rare opportunity in one of Auckland’s most sought-after locations — with the bonus of potential to add value or develop in the future. Tucked away in a quiet leafy setting between Newmarket and Parnell shops, this calm mid-century retreat offers a unique blend of privacy, lifestyle, and central convenience.
