1C Foch Avenue, Three Kings, Auckland, 1041, New Zealand

Attention all first home buyers, downsizers, families, investors and those looking for something more than apartment living at an affordable price. This character filled solid brick 1930s Art Deco home is the Auckland character lock up-and-leave you have been seeking.

You will find this warm and inviting home has been the much loved first home of my vendors, with its tasteful paint and decor scheme that blends beautifully with the original polished floors, working open fireplace, modern bathroom and two large double bedrooms with built-in wardrobes. Two heat pumps also ensure you are kept cool in the summer and even warmer in the winter. Outside, a separate fully lined lock up garage provides you with ample storage and the potential to have a separate stay at home office/studio space. There is also one off-street parking space plus an additional exclusive use laundry room, which also doubles up as another handy storage nook.

The real hidden gem is the exclusive, sunny north-facing secret garden which is landscaped to perfection. Great for an outdoor BBQ with family and friends or for air drying your washing. There is also the neat addition of raised vegetable beds, very handy with the cost of fruit and veggies at the moment.

With no Body Corporate fees to pay and having been a successful Airbnb with back-to-back bookings over the summer months, this is a great investment and a fantastic opportunity to sneak into the vibrant Three Kings neighbourhood. So dangerously close to the French Bakery and the many other eateries of Mount Eden, Balmoral and Sandringham. Arthur Faulkner Reserve children’s park and tennis courts are at the end of the Avenue and you are within easy walking distance to bus links into the CBD, ensuring your morning commute is quick and stress-free.
