Escape to the country in your own backyard. This renovated bungalow is ideally located between Ellerslie Village and Sylvia Park and boasts a truly unique landscape. With magnificent 180 degree views panning to One Tree Hill, the Sky Tower and Waitakere Ranges, and three enviable, large outdoor entertaining areas - including a magnificent outdoor stone fireplace - this is the perfect haven for those who desire total privacy and room to play, relax and unwind. The three-bedroom house and grounds have received lashings of TLC in the past five years as the owners have sought to modernise in an area which is fast becoming popular because of its accessibility to the local suburbs, motorway ramps, train stations and Auckland city centre. The downstairs office and basement provide plenty of extra space and storage, and have further potential for renovation. The property also boasts a newly refurbished, solid studio, complete with its own bathroom and toilet - and Code of Compliance. This little gem has its own private paved courtyard - an ideal spot for that much-wanted spa pool. The studio is an ideal guest escape, room for a teenager, home office, or rent it out - the possibilities are endless. The property is also home to a separate workshop/garden shed, complete with workbench and shelving, ensuring the man of the house has plenty of room to store his tools and gadgets. A council greenbelt lies to one side of this property ensuring extra privacy. Local schools, Ellerslie Village, Sylvia Park and kindergartens are short, 1.5kilometre walk away. Mt Wellington and Ellerslie motorway exits and entrances only a two minute drive away. Or simply train into the city centre from Penrose train station which is only a seven minute stroll from your front door. A property with so much to give, you'll want for nothing.
