Description

Auction: 34 Shortland Street, City on Wednesday 20 November 2024 at 10:00AM (unless sold prior)
Sunny and elevated, this renovated two-bedroom unit enjoys generous outdoor play spaces all round. Bordering the green fields of Churchill Park School grounds and situated on a tranquil cul de sac. As an entry-level first home, investors and downsizing retirees will be drawn to the myriad of features and benefits.
This elevated and north facing home has outlooks from either side and with open-air places to sit and marvel at on dark starry nights. Front steps ascend to the porch where you're greeted by a decorative bevel glass front door opening into an attractive open plan living area, anchored by original native timber floors. A heat pump keeps the entire home cosy as do elegant full-length drapes which coordinate perfectly with minimalist pure-white walls, blinds and modern lighting throughout. The Kitchen is integrated with entertainment zones incorporating a SMEG stainless steel oven, matching canopy rangehood, and ample cabinetry. The back door connects to a tiered deck for idyllic outdoor living and flat back lawns - the perfect breakout spot where tui birdsong evokes a feeling of being far removed from the city. Two bedrooms have built in wardrobes and share a hideaway laundry and sleek, chic tile floor bathroom with shower over bath. There's a single carport, while generous under-floor storage houses kayaks and paddle boards.
With exclusive-use boundaries, the section is fully fenced and features beautifully landscaped gardens. Nestled in a sought-after neighbourhood, this home is close to St Heliers Beach, boutique shops, and public transport. Children can head straight through a gate to school, with Churchill Park just a short walk away, and Karaka Bay nearby for a paddle or summer swim. This 1960s gem is truly a rare find.
