3 Fallsbrook Lane Mangere Bridge, Manukau City

As the substantial former home of passionately dedicated locals, the late Bill and Naomi Kirk (QSM), this single level architecturally-designed residence with majestic Manukau Harbour views was built 18 years ago to exacting standards. Snugly nestled in the best spot on a quaint Cotswolds-style country lane, it's elevated and north-facing, basking on the rural foothills of Mangere Mountain. Discerning buyers will derive immense pleasure from the home's special attributes and legacy, sharing the original owners' great devotion to the wonderful region this home overlooks.

The accommodation rests on a generous 240m footprint embracing significant entertaining spaces which exploit the height-protected panorama beyond. Architectural idiosyncrasies include internal shuttered apertures framing different picture-perfect views and adding further lightness and space along with the 2.7m stud. The large kitchen is ready for your house-warming party preparations as easy socialising will be a regular agenda item. Three inviting bedrooms and two contemporary bathrooms (with master ensuite) - this is the ideal soft place to land at the end of your workday. As the sun sets on your spectacular views, where better to enjoy a single malt than beside the log fire in the formal sitting room or out on the terrace in summer?

Fully fenced with plenty of storage, a double internally accessed garage is supported by additional off street parking. Energy efficiency is a boon with solar-powered hot water and wetback, fed from the living room log-burner. Immaculate gardens are thoughtfully landscaped with well-established trees. Zoned for Mangere Bridge School and Onehunga High School, the location is suitable whether you're commuting to Auckland's CBD or heading to the airport. The beautiful harbourside playground of Ambury Regional Park is nearby as is Mangere Bridge town centre where the Naomi and Bill Kirk Park is a fitting reminder of their community service.
