52 Lincoln Street, Ponsonby, Auckland, 1021, New Zealand

Blending urban living and unrivalled opportunity is this rare central delight. A classic, lovingly maintained square front villa situated mere steps from the action, this is your launchpad into the Ponsonby lifestyle.

Step inside to appreciate the fabulous high stud, original polished wood floors and board and batten ceilings. Make your way through to open plan living and dining at the rear, anchored by a wood-burning fireplace for cosy nights in. The modern kitchen is well-appointed and spacious, and the whole space flows beautifully out to a paved courtyard for alfresco dining and entertaining guests on long, hot summer nights.

Follow the sun throughout the day and relax with a cocktail on the verandah in the evening as you watch the world go by, while the beautifully private green space at the rear of the home invites the addition of a pool or an extension to the footprint of the home.

Three bedrooms are positioned at the front, with one opening through French doors to the verandah. The large family bathroom, separate WC and adjacent laundry are ready for their modern makeover.

This retreat offers endless possibilities as a superb home, fantastic investment or a canvas for creativity. Take full advantage of the location and landholding to further enhance this gem and add value while building costs have dipped, and enjoy the Ponsonby lifestyle while you make your plans.

The stellar location is second to none, with all of the fun of Ponsonby Road on your doorstep and popular Grey Lynn Park, Richmond Road shops and supermarkets just a short walk away.

Packed with potential and super cute as is, call your architect and bring your stylish city dreams to life. Make the most of the market and seize this opportunity with both hands.
