Standing tall above the manicured hedges is 9 Leslie Avenue, Sandringham. When you walk in the door the first thing you will notice is the feeling it has... It has a cool vibe helped by the huge feature window that lets light flood into the hallway and frames the front garden perfectly. With the beautiful wooden floors it feels like an art gallery. Offering total privacy this traditional bay villa sitting on approx 613 m2 of land features all the charm of yesteryear with original updates for modern living. The formal lounge is a great space with high ceilings and a gas fireplace. From there your eye is drawn to the open plan kitchen and into a modern glass pavilion for more lounging and dining. Imagine having dinner here looking up at the stars. This North facing patio and garden is the secret to this home where you could spend summer evenings with a drink in your hand watching the kids play on the lawn. Speaking of the children great schools are a walk away including Kowhai Intermediate, Mount Albert Grammar, Auckland Girls Grammar and Edendale School. Tons of storage in the roof and basement, three generous bedrooms, a garage, off street parking a separate laundry and fibre round off one perfect home. As the locals will tell you living in trendy Sandringham means you are moments from Kingsland Village, the cafes, bars and the train station. Kingsland hums on game night. Are you an All Blacks fan or take the kids to the cricket? You can stroll to the game from here. Its so close I bet your mates will be asking for pre-game drinks at your house. Also around the corner is one of my favourite Auckland cafes- Morningside's Crave. And within walking distance is St Lukes Mall and Health and Sports Gym gym. If you are a buyer and location and light are important to you this home should be on your list to view.
