Tucked away from the road in one of Hauraki's most sought-after neighbourhoods, this renovated character home presents the perfect proportions for families at all stages. The elevated position enjoys fantastic light and sun. What a great location directly across the road from Northboro Reserve, with its beautiful waterfront park, playground and pathways for cycling and walking. Local cafes and Hauraki School are also within easy walking distance, as is Takapuna beach. The current owners have owned the home for 10 years and loved the space, outdoor living and location for raising their three young children. "Daffodil Cottage" has been refreshed and modernised by previous owners, creating practical, stylish spaces for family life and entertaining. The top floor's living, dining and contemporary kitchen areas are open-plan, with wooden floors and many windows showcasing elevated views out over the treetops. Bifolds open out to the expansive, north-facing decks outside, which are framed with easy-care tropical landscaping. The large pergola is perfect for summer entertaining and there's space for little ones to ride their bikes safely. There are three bedrooms on this level, serviced by the main bathroom with bath. Extra insulation in the roof and underfloor were added for extra coziness and when they redid the carpet a few years ago they upgraded to the thickest underlay they could find. Downstairs, the spacious fourth bedroom has its own bathroom and outdoor access, making it the ideal teenage retreat, home office or extended family accommodation. As well as the carpeted internal garage, there's off-street parking for an additional three cars outside, plus a covered park for trailers or a jet ski . Whether its nurturing a young family or creating freedom for teens, this perfectly-positioned property ticks all the boxes. This property is well priced for Hauraki so you will need to act quickly! https://www.harcourtsfiles.co.nz/listings/WPIG
