Listed by: Lawrence Yuan | Barfoot & Thompson
Prestige, Position & Development Appeal Positioned on one of Glendowie’s most sought-after streets, this elevated 878m² (more or less) freehold site boasts sweeping views across the Tamaki Estuary to Half Moon Bay. With a classic 1950s weatherboard home already in place, the setting is primed for a transformation—whether as a high-end coastal residence or a multi-dwelling development (subject to council approval).Just steps from Roberta Reserve and the waterfront, this rare landholding in a premium location has been granted Resource Consent for a 3-lot subdivision, offering a superb opportunity for developers or landbankers. An added advantage is the vendor is not GST-registered, making this an attractive proposition from a tax point of view.The existing home features three bedrooms—including a master with ensuite—a full family bathroom, generous living areas and single garaging. Certainly liveable as is, the true value lies in the land, the location, and the lifestyle this site offers, including zoning for popular Glendowie Primary and Glendowie College. This is an exceptional opportunity in one of Auckland’s most tightly held neighbourhoods. Call today for viewing times or to arrange a private inspection.
