Gracing a pancake-flat 1096sqm section in the double Grammar zone, this grand renovated villa has "family" and "development potential" written all over it.

Available for the first time in 10 years, the current owners jumped at the chance to provide a secure and fun environment for their children to complete their primary and secondary schooling. They've created precious memories of happy kids enjoying birthday parties, bouncing on the trampoline, and splashing in the pool.

The size and convenient single-level layout of the house is perfect for families of all shapes and sizes. If you need space to work from home, perhaps an art studio, extra accommodation, space for multiple vehicles, or a boat, you'll love what is on offer here. There is a triple garage and plenty of off-street parking.

The location is highly sought-after. An easy commute north and south, and walking distance to Remuera Primary and Intermediate Schools. Remuera Village is just up the road and Newmarket and the City just moments away by car. The Remuera & Greenlane train stations are nearby too.

Wide 20 metre (approx) street frontage with a rectangular shape enhances the development potential of this enticing section. Across the street and nearby, you'll spot new luxury freestanding homes and some terrace house developments. This relatively affordable neighbourhood is rapidly gentrifying - and in such a central location - it's no surprise!

Buy and enjoy fun times with your family, or buy and hold for future development. One thing's for certain - the time to buy is now.

Floor area: 304 sqm (approximately), includes house (244sqm) plus garage and spare room. Land area: 1096 sqm (more or less) CV (2017) : $2,850,000
