THE PONSONBY UNICORN

If there were no limitations to the length of a title, we would write something like "The 4 bedroom, 2 bathroom Parkside Bali retreat in the middle of Ponsonby with a separate (almost) self contained level and a DOUBLE garage". However, we can only work within the boundaries given...

The owners sense of style oozes from this amazing property and can be utilised in so many ways.

Firstly, we have the adorable square frontage. The owners love having a gin on their "Norfolk St Deck" with the whole house opened up.
If you have teenagers that need space - they can use the private landscaped deck area to the east. There is all-day sun to maximise!
The main floor is home to 3 large bedrooms all with their own wardrobes and a master bathroom with underfloor heating. The kitchen is totally modern with a scullery to keep everything tidy.

Make your way downstairs through the main level staircase, or access it totally separately from the side of the house, and here you have a private retreat - located right next to the park! With a bathroom and linen cupboard (that could be reimagined), your visitors or teenagers will have their own seperate area.
Working from home could mean you give up the office as this space (with independent access and just 1 neighbour) could be used for a number of vocations. Think yoga, therapist, beautician or general office space.

With heat pumps and an HRV system plus the underfloor heating, you have all modern comforts with classic villa charm.

The backyard is a veritable flora and fauna paradise. The owners have a green thumb evident on arrival, that you will appreciate, as plantings have been curated to create seperate spaces within the one area. There is even a Zen Meditation Zone. The only question is where should you put the spa pool because you have options.

But the kicker is the DOUBLE garage. Yes, that's right - no excavation needed here.

With so many options for how you will live now, not to mention in the years to come, this is an easy choice for those wanting a family home or an apartment with an additional income stream.
