About this property

Charming Villa nestled away in the city centre

Summary:
Enjoy this 1900's renovated villa that blends heritage with comfort. An entertainer's home, flowing across two levels where you can enjoy the upstairs open flow or descend to the coziness of the lower level for lounging or some outdoor fun.

Despite being only a short walking distance to Ponsonby’s amazing restaurants, shopping and nightlife or short commute to Auckland’s harbour front & downtown with the famous Sky Tower, you’ll actually find this a quiet escape, surrounded by some greenery.

The Space:
There are 3 spacious bedrooms on the first floor, one with an ensuite. The main bathroom is also located on that floor.
The kitchen opens to the back of the house where there’s a large deck.

Downstairs, a spacious and cozy living room is the perfect spot to read a book, watch a movie or play games. It has an office space as well
There is a bedroom with an ensuite on that floor, as well as the laundry room.
The outdoor patio is fully fenced and set up with multiple games and a turf area, perfectly safe for kids to play.
Note the house has a no party rule and maximum guest is 8. We have outdoor CCTV for extra security and safety.

Guest Access:
You will have full access to the property during your stay. Enjoy!

Please note the outside storage shed around the back under the house is off limits to guests.

The Neighborhood:
Ponsonby is a vibrant inner-city suburb of Auckland, located just 2 kilometers west of the Central Business District. Known for its eclectic mix of heritage charm and modern sophistication, Ponsonby has evolved from its working-class roots into one of Auckland's most fashionable neighborhoods.

The heart of Ponsonby is Ponsonby Road, a bustling strip lined with an array of cafes, restaurants, boutiques, and bars. This area is particularly popular among young professionals and creatives, offering a dynamic social scene.

Getting Around:
Very close to motorway on and off ramps to SH1, ride-share services are available and is on a main arterial bus route right in to the heart of the city centre.

Please review the house rules before booking. We have a strict policy against parties or events on the premises. Any violation of this rule will result in immediate eviction from the property and charges for any damages or additional cleaning that may be required.

Whilst the location of the house is great, there’s a few things which need to be looked at in the house. The TV doesn’t work (the electricity supply constantly flickers), the moms coffee pot is not only rusty but the handle falls off so is unusable, and the mattresses in the downstairs room and front double bed are very uncomfortable- so much so, that some of my party decided to leave the property and move into a hotel. Lastly, the placement of the dryer needs to be reconsidered. You can’t even empty the water chamber as the dryer is too close to the wall! Considering the cost of the property, this was all quite disappointing.
