This charming freehold terraced home, nestled in the highly sought-after master-planned community Richmond, has been crafted for convenience and a relaxed low-maintenance lifestyle.

A dream first home for busy professionals and small families, or an urban retreat for downsizers and retirees. Savvy investors don't have to wait until the next financial year for full tax deductibility, with its 'new build' status.

You'll be impressed with this super-sized two-bedroom home (approx. 92sqm), with a generous 2.7m ceiling on the living level that welcomes natural light from dawn to dusk.

Enjoy morning sun for breakfast in the east-facing kitchen, sunsets from the west-facing living and fully fenced courtyard, and a short stroll to a lush private pocket park.

On the upper level a unique bathroom design offers the perfect solution for busy families or boarders, with separate toilet, plus a bathtub and shower - envision relaxing uninterrupted bubble baths after a long day.

Revel in the modern amenities and specifications of this high-quality home, including a heat pump, wireless security system, pull-down stairs to attic storage, double-glazed windows, engineered stone benchtop, Bosch appliances, low-maintenance brick cladding, and a car park adjacent to the courtyard accessed via a private laneway.

The owner-occupiers have meticulously maintained this home since its construction (CCC issued Nov 2020), with the remainder of a transferrable 10-year Stamford Insurance Building Warranty.

Cancel the gym membership with a resident's gym and five landscaped parks. Plus, a brand-new children's playground and community clubhouse. A Resident's Association protects the value of your home and maintenance of shared amenities.

Only 3km drive to NZ's largest shopping centre, Sylvia Park, with a park-and-ride train station, 12km to Auckland CBD, 1.5km to State Highway 1, 4.8km to Middlemore Hospital, and 13km to Auckland Airport.
