61 Gosford Drive Botany Downs, Manukau City

Auction: 6.00pm, Tuesday 13 October (unless sold prior)

There are homes that feel like a retreat the moment you arrive - and 61 Gosford Drive is one of them. Tucked away from the street in a private right-of-way, with the Gosford Drive Reserve stretching out behind you, this is a home that offers something increasingly rare in Botany Downs: genuine peace and privacy, with no rear neighbours and a green outlook that feels a world away from the everyday.

Step inside and the layout immediately works in your favour. The generous lounge flows naturally out to the deck, making indoor-outdoor entertaining effortless whether it's a casual family dinner or a proper weekend gathering with friends. A separate dining area keeps meals in their own space and the rumpus room adds that extra layer of flexibility that growing families always end up being grateful for.

Three bedrooms and two bathrooms handle the practical side of life with ease, while the generous 700sqm (more or less) freehold section means there's real space to enjoy - inside and out.

The location ties it all together. Botany Town Centre and Highland Park Shopping Centre are just minutes away, the reserve and playground are right on your doorstep and the home sits within the zones for Botany Downs School, Howick Intermediate and Pakuranga College.

Freehold, private and backing onto the reserve - homes with this combination don't stay on the market long. The vendor has made their next move. Now it's your turn.
