ENTRY TO THE PROPERTY FROM 76 RED HILL ROAD.
Hidden treasure, and literally, "The Eye In The Sky", high above Papakura and in two titles! A must see for a family, entrepreneur or developer, with access to two streets. A character filled opportunity, stunning views, peace, tranquillity and the chance to subdivide, renovate, or build a second home for your family!
Five majestic oak trees line the drive to take you down through a beautiful park-like setting to the original 2 storied architecturally designed home (Allan Fairhead) The residence has been created on the 2nd title, and boasts 3 large double bedrooms and a huge rumpus room.
To enter the home you come through a clever conservatory area, with plantings and a fountain then through the welcoming timber doors, where the first thing you see is the unbelievable view! Right out over the town and to the Manukau harbour beyond. Family living is upstairs to take advantage of the extensive views, and the double garage enters this level as well.
Built in the sixties, this architectural masterpiece has been owned by one family - the potential of this combined property is endless. It has been such a haven for the family, for many gatherings over the years, entertaining large groups is not a problem with all the open plan living spaces and wrap round decking. The lounge you have entered opens out to the north and west, and onto a long verandah. Sun all day and of course, the most amazing sunsets! The home has many features, especially the exquisite timber work in the lounge and master bedroom, with many builtin cupboards that are specially "curved' as you enter the dressing room and modern en suite bathroom. In the master bedroom you wake to the sound of Tuis and the Kereru Wood pigeons and you can enjoy the amazing views as well. You can actually "hear" the quietness!
The large and sunny family kitchen, designed by Ron Sang, is at the northern end of the upstairs wing, and has views from every window. Everyone will always gather here at the end of the day, and then watch the children swimming in the beautiful heated pool and spa in the courtyard off the kitchen - a great spot for the morning sun and evening barbeques, it is well fenced, sheltered and private. Downstairs we find two large bedrooms and a huge rumpus room, which is great as a hobby room with access to a large deck and the lower garden. this could so easily become 2 rooms or 2 further bedrooms.
The property is located close to beautiful covenanted native bush, and the children remember hours of exploring and walks, not to mention the building of tree huts! Just a 5 minute drive to the Papakura township, and the train station, and 8 minutes to the motorway.
Definitely a property for those who are family minded and with an eye to the future! Options galore here - build or landbank, or just renovate and enjoy the extra space this property offers! This is a must see for those looking to invest in a valuable piece of realestate in Papakura.
Inspection will be rewarded so be quick!
