After 18 years, the owners have made the call.

And if you know this pocket of the inner-east, you’ll know why that wasn’t an easy decision.

Tucked away just outside the four avenues, this quiet cul-de-sac is one of those spots that rarely comes up. But now, opportunity knocks—for those who know what they’re doing.

– 4-bedroom + study character home with approx. 62mm floor level variance
– Earthquake-damaged, cash settled, no EQC/insurance to transfer
– Substantial early-2000s upgrades: modern kitchen + bathrooms
– Two heat pumps + wood burner for year-round comfort
– Native timber floors, original panelling, and leadlight windows
– Large, north-facing layout with loads of charm still intact
– Self-contained flat (2016) with kitchen, bathroom and heat pump
– Flat + separate double garage remain fully insured
– Ideal for extended family, income stream, or home business
– Off-street parking and established garden setting

And then there’s the view.

From the upstairs bedrooms, you’ll look out over the river and the tree-lined park beyond.

Across the water, the City to Surf cycleway winds its way through—perfect for weekend rides or daily commutes on two wheels.

The location is a quiet win.

You’re walking distance to Little Pom’s for brunch, Pomeroys for an after-work pint, and Flow Wellbeing for yoga, saunas, and therapeutic care. The river’s nearby. So is the city. But it still feels like its own peaceful world.

If you know how to handle an EQ project—or have the contacts who do—this one’s packed with potential.

Live in it, rent the flat, or start from scratch down the line. Either way, you’re buying in a location that’s only getting better.

The hard decision’s been made. Now it’s your move.
