108 Takahe Road Titirangi, Waitakere City

Long lunches under the covered patio, teenagers splashing in the pool and an evening wine under the pergola. There's a lovely Mediterranean feel to this home, where summer days stretch into relaxed evenings and there's room for everyone to enjoy themselves.

Loved by the same owners for close to 30 years, this has been a home filled with happy memories. Now it's another family's turn to make their own.

The outdoor spaces set the scene beautifully. A large covered patio connects through French doors to two exceptionally generous downstairs rooms, while the swimming pool has its own poolside dressing room and convenient toilet. A pergola offers shelter for a spa, and a flat, usable garden offers space for vegetables, a trampoline or a little of both.

For families with teenagers, the layout is a real drawcard. Use both downstairs rooms as bedrooms to create a four-bedroom home with room for older children to spread out, or keep one as a bedroom and make the other your entertainment hub. With a bar already in place and room that has previously accommodated a pool table, it's easy to picture friends gathering here before spilling out to the patio and pool.
Upstairs, the renovated kitchen and adjacent laundry/butler's pantry make family meals and entertaining a pleasure. The main living room opens to a deck with spectacular elevated city views, including the Sky Tower, while a second living room gives you options for a TV snug, office or quiet retreat.

The spacious master bedroom enjoys those same sweeping views, with a walk-through dressing area leading to the ensuite. This adjoining space also offers potential for a nursery for those wanting baby close by. A single bedroom and a family bathroom with a separate shower complete the upstairs layout. The bathroom retains its older styling, leaving scope to add your own touch over time.

With approximately 210m2; of space and high ceilings adding to the generous feel, this is a home where family life can grow and change. Green Bay High School and the local shops are just a very short walk away, bringing everyday convenience to the holiday-at-home lifestyle.

Bring the teenagers, invite their friends and start planning your first summer. Life around this pool could be something very special.
