Discreetly tucked at the end of a long drive in its own little pocket of 'easy-care' heaven, this simple and charming weatherboard home offers the ideal buying option for first homers, small families, investors or downsizers.

Backing on to a reserve, the privacy afforded here is exceptional. Enjoy the recently renovated interiors, complete with contemporary and comfortable neutral palette, ready for your own colourful touches. Flooded with sunlight throughout, the warmth of the timber floors carries through to the separate lounge and open plan kitchen and dining. From here your friends and family can enjoy the easy flow to large decking that is ideal for the BBQs of the coming summer or for hosting events during the festive season. Three gorgeous bedrooms and a family bathroom complete the tidy footprint.

Certainly delightful but not surprising is how popular Orakei is. Famed for convenience to the city and wealth of amenities, you can take advantage of the lifestyle options also on offer, with beaches and walks all at your fingertips to be enjoyed.

A home you will love sharing and enjoying for yourself, it is a delightful surprise waiting to be stumbled upon. Unwrap it without delay through your inspection.
