5 Edgar Pearce Place Howick, Manukau City

Adored by a generation and presented to the market for the very first time, this traditional weatherboard classic, genuinely represents a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity in Howick.

Having had this home built for their family in 1969, the vendors have accumulated innumerable happy memories here over the past 50 years, and the property's meticulous presentation is a testament to the sheer pride they have for this home.

Everyday living occurs over a single level, with the floor plan comprising a study, an open-plan layout, and a formal dining room. Accommodation currently comes in the form of three double bedrooms that are complemented by a family bathroom; however, the formal dining room could potentially be converted into a fourth bedroom should you require.

Polished floorboards and the log burner serve as a reminder of the home's character, while the tasteful colour scheme heightens the desirability of the interior. The garden is a private haven for entertaining and comes complete with a sizeable deck as well as an in-ground swimming pool which is suitably accompanied by changing rooms. The 701sqm section also contains a single garage for storage.

The location is highly convenient and is another factor contributing to the vendors' considerable tenure. Howick Village, with its eateries, shops and popular Saturday market, is a short walk away while local parks, beaches and excellent schooling options are also close by, including Cockle Bay School, Botany Downs School and Somerville Intermediate.

The vendors have made the difficult decision to downsize, making way for another family to create their own lifetime of memories at this incredibly special residence.
