8A Edgar Pearce Place Howick, Manukau City

Forget everything you thought you knew about new builds because this unique oasis will leave you speechless!

There's no cookie-cutter living here. The owners have transformed this solid, north-facing two-bedroom home into a paradise for young families and entertainers. Exceptional upgrades and thoughtful, lifestyle-led modifications are obvious the moment you step through the front gate.

An elegant, wide plank hardwood deck wraps around a third of the home, offering a beautiful tropical retreat-like sanctuary. It's the perfect space for hosting; imagine afternoons dining al fresco and entertaining, weekend barbecues or simply soaking up the sun on the built-in seating. Unlike other builds, there are mature trees for shade, and it is completely fenced for privacy and added security.

A seamless flow between the deck and the open-plan living ensures effortless celebrations. The kitchen is sleek and contemporary with everything you need to make meal prep a breeze, and the home's north-facing orientation ensures all-day sun.

Both bedrooms are located upstairs and have had custom storage added to the wardrobes. The main bathroom is also complemented by a handy second WC downstairs, while the laundry is conveniently placed under the stairs and there is great storage throughout.

Part of a boutique enclave of five very private and well-spaced freestanding homes set on a quiet family-friendly cul-de sac, the owner-occupier neighbours are all kind and considerate.

In zone for Botany Downs School, Cockle Bay School, Somerville intermediate and Howick College, the Reserve to kick the ball around is nearby, as well as walkthrough access to Howick New World.

The owners have loved living here, but an upsize necessitates the sale of this exceptional residence meaning it is now available for an astute professional, couple or young family searching for the ultimate contemporary haven.
