Auction Thursday! Releasing After 43 Cherished Years!

Welcome to 53 Balmain Road, Birkenhead - a spacious and comfortable double story family home that has been cherished by one special family for the last 43 years!

Originally built in the 1960's, this well-constructed character home boasts a versatile floor plan that can accommodate everyone's needs, whether you want to use all six generously sized bedrooms or reserve a few for a home gym or an additional study space. Facing directly North ensures its sunny, light, and breezy during summer and warm and cozy throughout winter, providing everything a family could desire.

The home's multiple living areas offer comfort and space for relaxing in or entertaining guests, making it ideal for large families, those requiring extra workspace, or even creating a separate granny flat - there are many options here. The stained-glass doors and front bay window seat add an authentic touch of character to the home.

The top floor living areas all extend out to an entertainer's deck, with water views, and a native bush backdrop, perfect for hosting outdoor BBQ's and family gatherings. The expansive backyard is well-established with mature trees and the Mulberry tree is home to local Tui & Kereru birds.

Located in one of Birkenhead's most desirable pockets, it is situated directly opposite the popular Chelsea View school, with public transport right outside, and just a short distance from Birkenhead Wharf, Northcote Point, Highbury shopping centre, and Auckland CBD, offering an unparalleled lifestyle.

Although my Vendors have strong roots in this much-loved home and neighbourhood, it is with a heavy heart they have decided it is time to move on and let another deserving family enjoy it as much as they have.
