With street appeal in abundance, 65 Calcutta Street, Khandallah makes a huge statement with its four distinct levels. Positioned perfectly, and stepping back gracefully up a gentle sloping pathway resides a large single garage, a fully sound-proofed studio, a self-contained one-bedroom flat and the cream of the crop - an impressive, spacious three-bedroom family home. The gardens are a treat with their tiered levels oozing class in abundance.

What a magnificent dual-level space to host or relax in after a busy day at work. Capturing stunning views over Mt Kaukau, one can enjoy lashings of sun, and the warmth of the double glazing and radiators while curled up on the couch watching their favourite TV show or being gripped by their favourite book.

Generously proportioned, this light-filled lounge/dining room is a pleasure to come home to. With its three sets of windows and lots of clear wall space, there’s plenty of configuration options to arrange your furniture and artwork. A heatpump which resides off the hallway, ensures a warm experience in the cooler months!

Strategically located off the open-plan kitchen resides both a dining area space and second living area. Complete with dual skylights, this is a super spot to join the family together at mealtimes or to oversee the kids doing their homework or reading while the adults are in the kitchen. What a treat to have such a welcoming, warm, and open plan area to host and relax in too.

A modernised, clean, and user-friendly kitchen. This spacious area ensures a strong connection with the adjoining open-plan living areas. This is a great space for the chef of the home to enjoy whipping up another culinary delight. An extra bonus are the North-facing windows across the back of the house which ensure the kids can be watched from a distance while they play happily outside.

1. The master bedroom boasts triple wardrobes, each with a separate overhead storage unit. The large dual windows attract both the afternoon and evening sun, and lots of lighting in the room ensures a well-lit sanctuary for the later evening hours.

2. Closest to the lounge resides this ample-sized bedroom. Stealing the show here are the impressive South and West facing views. Three shelving units and a clothes rail, along with HRV overhead and a wall-mounted radiator will ensure you’re nice and warm come evening time.

3. Well-placed off the hallway, close to the family bathroom and complete with two sets of overhead storage units. Just ideal for rotating the kids’ seasonal clothes and toys. A large East-facing window allows plenty of natural light in, and the two wall-mounted headlights are a nice touch to encourage that all-important night-time reading.

4. A good-sized bedroom benefiting from built-in, pull-out drawers, shelving, cupboard space and two large bay window areas too. HRV for heating and with its dual window aspect there’s plenty of natural light to flood the room in the afternoons and early evening.

1. Conveniently located in the home’s most central position. Separate bath and shower, that feeling of luxury with tiled splash backs over the vanity and alongside the bath. In addition, there’s a radiator, heated towel rail, WC, extractor fan with built in heating, and lots of storage space for the towels – just brilliant as it’ll never be far to go when it dawns upon you that you’ve forgotten one at the end of your bathing!

2. A great use of space with the laundry area and shelving being tucked away comfortably, along with a shower, hand basin, WC, extractor fan and heated towel rail completing the picture.

3. Enjoy prepping on the large stainless-steel bench top before passing exquisite meals through the coolest of servery spaces. The four cupboards cleverly act as storage spaces or pantry places! Fully equipped with oven, fridge/freezer and microwave and complimented by a tiled floor for ease of cleaning.

Strategically located off the kitchen area. Complete with tub, and shelving, and ample space for a separate washing machine and dryer.

Seek the sun, or shelter in the shade – great to have options. Enjoy the gentle upward slope from front to back, and terraced gardens at the back of the property. The panoramic and impressive South and West-facing outward views are something to behold. Extras like decked areas to host, relax and BBQ on, a garden shed, spa pool area, grass for the kids and pets, and low-maintenance, native gardens complete the impressive outdoor areas.

This property benefits from a large single electric door garage, with room for a second car to park off-street too.

What a bonus extra space to call upon. With multiple options, it could easily become your study, work from home retreat, library, man-cave, she-shed or rumpus room. Or perhaps you’d like to use it like the current owners have – a fully sound-proofed music room.

As can be expected with a home of this size, there’s lots of internal cupboard spaces dotted around, all of which provide a plethora of storage options, as well as under the home, in the garage and in the attic.

Cashmere Ave School (Years 1-6), Khandallah School (Years 1-6), St Benedict’s School (Years 1-8), Raroa Intermediate School (Years 7&8), Onslow College (Years 9-13), Wellington Girls College (Years 9-13), St Mary’s College (Years 9-13), St Patrick’s College (Years 9-13).

Gas-powered hot water radiators throughout, along with an HRV system heat the home effortlessly. Partially double glazed in both the upstairs lounge and front bedroom areas too. A pair of skylights in the open-plan kitchen and dining room areas ensure a light-filled, welcoming area to host or relax in.

Fully insulated under the floorboards between the home and apartment underneath, and in the ceiling space; partially insulated in the walls (dining room and kitchen, bathroom and children’s bedroom along hallway).
