23 Pohutukawa Avenue, Shelly Park, Manukau City, Auckland

This superb 1930's character bungalow with separate, free-standing studio boasts timeless charm, classical lines and an unparalleled 1945sqm waterfront position with panoramic sea views.

Rich in heritage, the property is a rare find. Amongst one of the earliest to be built in this area and still displaying many of its quaint original features. Running right down to the Esplanade Reserve preserves the property's connection to an outstanding coastal landscape that is so unique to this small enclave of homes. Family memories will be created enjoying private outings along this stretch of coastline, boating, kayaking, fishing or simply an indulgent picnic by the water's edge.

Versatile improvements to the original three-bedroom home have added a new dimension to the living setup with a well thought out studio/sleepout, double garage and storeroom. Ideally suited as a teenager's retreat, art studio, work from home setup or yoga space - the choice is yours. There's room for a boat or campervan parking too.

The home itself offers an elegant format with an open plan living/dining, kitchen and formal lounge extending seamlessly to an extensive outdoor entertainment area. Evenings of exception will become the norm here, set against sweeping ocean views for your dining delight.

Families will appreciate the excellent local schooling - Somerville Intermediate, Shelly Park Primary and Howick College. Those new to the area will find the sense of community and togetherness a reason to stay long-term. These homes seldom come to market.

Short trips along the Pohutukawa Coast, to weekend Farmers Markets or to one of the many sparkling beaches will fill your weekends with old fashioned outdoor fun.

This beautiful property is more than a home - it's an invitation to build memories and an exceptional investment in your family's future happiness. We welcome you to our open homes and look forward to showing you through your new home.
