Offered to the market for the very first time, this remarkable post-war family residence presents a rare opportunity to secure one of Ellerslie's most cherished lifestyle properties. Set on an expansive 1,692sqm (approx.) site with a substantial 330sqm (approx.) home, this much-loved estate has been held by the same family for five generations, creating decades of treasured memories, celebrations and milestones.

Originally built in the 1950s by respected Master Builder Mr Wright as his own family home, the residence showcases timeless craftsmanship, generous proportions and enduring character. Behind the gated entrance, the home offers exceptional flexibility for growing or extended families. The ground floor features two elegant formal lounges, an additional family living area, spacious open-plan kitchen and dining, a versatile multipurpose room, two powder rooms, a separate laundry and a bathroom with further potential.

Upstairs offers four generous bedrooms and a family bathroom, while a separate guest suite with its own ensuite provides ideal accommodation for extended family, guests or independent living. The expansive rear lawn has been the setting for weddings, family celebrations, after-match functions and unforgettable gatherings. From Auckland Orchestra performances to pipe bands filling the gardens with music, and even renowned musician Mike Chunn creating music here, this is a home with a truly unique story. The iconic horse displayed in the front window became a local landmark, letting generations know they had arrived home, while tui birds provide a peaceful soundtrack throughout the seasons.

Beautifully positioned close to Lunn Avenue, Ellerslie Village, the train station, Michaels Avenue Reserve and Waiatarua Reserve, the location offers outstanding connectivity across Auckland, providing easy access to the city and surrounding suburbs. Complete with double garaging, parking for six additional vehicles, three garden sheds and beautifully established grounds, this is a once-in-a-generation opportunity to secure an irreplaceable family estate where the next chapter of memories is ready to begin.
