40 Murdoch Road Grey Lynn, Auckland City

Behind its timeless verandah and classic white picket fence, this enchanting 1890s villa has been meticulously renovated, seamlessly pairing heritage charm with a striking contemporary extension by Jones Architects. The result is a captivating urban oasis, perfectly suited to young families, professionals and downsizers alike.

Soaring atrium ceilings, oversized skylights, and walls of glazing bathe the living pavilion in abundant natural light creating a sense of space and calm. Outdoors, a sun-soaked private sanctuary awaits, complete with a heated saltwater pool, wrap-around decking and manicured lawn. This idyllic setting is tailor-made for long summer lunches, evening swims and effortless alfresco entertaining.

The kitchen is crisp and contemporary, anchored by a breakfast bar ideal for busy mornings and casual gatherings. A well-appointed laundry offers excellent storage and direct outdoor access, while the open-plan dining area ensures seamless hosting and relaxed family mealtimes.

Accommodation comprises four beautifully proportioned bedrooms, all with generous wardrobing. The primary suite features a walk-through robe and chic tiled ensuite, while two additional bathrooms provide hotel-style comfort for family and guests.

A genuine sense of zen flows throughout the home, with thoughtful inclusions catering to every lifestyle need - from a dedicated kids' TV or play room that offers a quiet retreat away from the main living hub, to ducted central heating, a large exterior storage cupboard and secure off-street parking.

Enviably positioned within easy walking distance of Ponsonby Road, the dining and retail hub of Ponsonby Central and the green open spaces of Grey Lynn Park, this is a location that effortlessly supports a vibrant urban lifestyle.
