70B Main Highway, Ellerslie, Auckland, 1051, New Zealand

For that inspirational request to “go big or go home” you’ll actually be able to do both in this fabulous almost new home of five double bedrooms and three big bathrooms. Everything about this gorgeous property is generous, spacious and incredibly family-friendly.

The double storey residence sits quietly and safely tucked behind electric intercom-controlled gates in an exclusive enclave. The expansive ground floor is where all the entertainment and family leisure time occur, with the elegant living room underpinned by durable American oak floorboards adding a sophisticated vibe. Off this a generous patio and barbecue area are perfect family areas with a swim spa pool to add to the chattels if you so wish. The kitchen is dazzling with Bosch appliances, gas cooking, and soft-opening cabinetry. Additionally, a big ground floor guest bedroom with semi-ensuite and garden access allows you to accommodate visitors, stash a teenager or have a dependent relative living under your roof.

Upstairs the big surprises continue with a massive master bedroom featuring a huge walk in wardrobe and mammoth rainfall shower in the ensuite. Four other bedrooms are all double and share the indulgent elements of marble tiling, twin vanity and on-trend standalone tub.

The location near to Ellerslie hub includes easy transport access to the train station, motorway on and off ramps at Greenlane and Tecoma and a whole swag of shops within easy reach. A short walk or car trip and you can be cheering your horse on at Ellerslie Racecourse or walking barefoot in Cornwall Park. Childcare centres and school zones also get the big tick and include One Tree Hill College, Ellerslie Primary & Intermediate School (across the road) and St Mary’s Primary School next door.
