For the past 59 years, 18 Pukeora has been a long-loved family home nestled quietly away on one of Remuera's more resplendent tree-lined avenues. This is an invaluable opportunity to obtain an admired pocket of Remuera with the chance to reimagine the generous spaces of this handsome 1940s abode. Situated at the end of the driveway on a gently undulating 1,290 square metres (zoned Mixed Housing Suburban Zone) amid established gardens, the home relaxes in a sun-filled environment while providing leafy privacy. Stepping onto the porch and through the front entrance, the light-filled layout unfolds very neatly in a traditional functioning manner, with a few vintage surprises around every bend. Each of the four bedrooms are framed by leafy outlooks; a few feature built-in dressing tables and robes; one enjoys French door access to the porch, and the great master room is closer to a lounge in size. The open fireplace is a charismatic centrepiece in the combined living and dining area, and a heat pump controls this environment year-round. The kitchen is arranged separately, as is the bathroom with WC. In addition, there is a sizeable basement, a separate laundry room, and oversized garaging is supported with further off-street parking. The delightful gardens cannot be overlooked. A sanctuary of greenery and very still, the grounds truly complement the timeless nature of the home. Position-wise, the property offers an advantageous urban edge, close to Newmarket's retailers, restaurants, and entertainment. Remuera Village is nearby, as is Greenlane's motorway access and excellent education, including Meadowbank School and Remuera Intermediate. 18 Pukeora affords a calm sense of place. It's an integrable canvas for any buyer to usher the classic family home into its modern own, while creating a lifestyle most suited to one's own wishes. There is no better lifestyle address to add value to. Contact Leila and David to make interest known.
