31 Glen Road, Devonport, North Shore

Auction brought forward Monday 20th May

Whilst the modest street frontage is in keeping with the heritage of this 1920's character home, it disguises a truly remarkable renovation within. The original bungalow has been masterfully transformed into an expansive family home across two generous levels. While aspects of the bungalow aesthetic have been artfully retained, the residence enjoys the sophistication, comfort and up-to-the-minute features of a contemporary build. Add to this its setting sun aspect and direct access to the vast green expanse of Stanley Bay Park, with its tennis club and sports fields, and you simply won't find a better home.

This is a celebrated and sought-after area of Devonport - a network of peaceful, family-filled streets. Located directly across the road from Stanley Bay School, and iconic Stanley Bay wharf is just a short stroll from home, offering a 15-minute ferry to Auckland city for work and play.

The light, sophisticated and incredibly warm interiors are designed for excellent family togetherness as well as separation. The open-plan gourmet entertainer's kitchen, dining and living room is the hub of the home, bathed in afternoon sun and flowing out to the louvre-protected deck. A gas fireplace makes the separate formal sun-drenched lounge a cosy winter retreat. There are three bedrooms upstairs, with the fourth bedroom downstairs - ideal for guests or teenagers. The rumpus/ games room and office/ library also downstairs flow out to the covered spa patio and fully fenced tropical garden with flat lawn. And a bonus, the downstairs area has been designed to be easily separated into a self-contained guest
