Kids spilling out one end, adults wining and dining at the other - the hardest part will be deciding who gets the north-west facing backyard and who gets the hot tub!Nineteen twenties charm sets the tone, with polished native timber floors, leadlight windows and shaker panelling leading to four separate indoor/outdoor spaces designed for relaxed weekends, busy family life, and everything in between.At the centre of it all sits the kitchen - the true hub of this home. Ideal for entertaining friends and family or simply managing daily life, from school lunches to work-from-home laptop sessions over the breakfast bar.Imagine your Friday mornings taking on a new rhythm - a five-minute walk to school before some well-earned ‘me time’, starting with a quick coffee at Catroux or indulging a little by enjoying the locally famous Bharta Eggs at Seabreeze. Continue on to the water’s edge at Cox's Bay Reserve, perhaps for a tennis lesson with friends at West End Lawn Tennis Club before looping back home along one of the suburb’s most gorgeous tree-lined streets - which just so happens to be yours.Back home, the master suite with its balcony offers a relaxed ‘coffee in hand’ vibe, elevated just enough to capture views of the upper harbour - a quiet reminder that you live in one of Auckland’s most desirable coastal city-fringe communities.Secure two cars in the double carport, complete with gated intercom access, and enjoy practical comforts such as radiant underfloor heating, a family-sized laundry and excellent storage throughout. Conversations around the barbecue will inevitably touch on the iconic Westmere Butcher and perhaps land on where a future pool might sit to further capitalise on your four hundred seventy-six square metre freehold section.The vendors have secured their next home. For you, that creates a clear and genuine opportunity to make this delightful Westmere home your own.Auction: thirty-four Shortland Street, City on Thursday thirtieth April two thousand twenty-six at ten o’clock AM (unless sold prior)
