17 Ronald Avenue, Glenbrook, Franklin, Auckland

Stand and fish on the edge of your section, & enjoy heading out on the harbour in your kayaks/paddle boards - the options here are endless when you are living on the waterfront. Originally built in 1970 and held within the same family for the last 24 years, this is a unique and exclusive slice of paradise right in the heart of Glenbrook Beach.

North-facing and bathed in natural light, this majorly renovated home features three generously proportioned bedrooms, an expansive kitchen and good-sized social living. A kent style fire contributes to the home's inherent warmth, while excellent indoor/outdoor flow to the spacious patio area ensures you'll spend plenty of time outside. The low maintenance site is designed to minimise upkeep and maximise quality time with friends and loved ones, while garaging ensures campers and boats can be well kept with all the other toys. There's another garage presently set up as a sleepout, as well as parking for all the vehicles.

There's an enviable lifestyle on offer here; one full of walks or bike rides along the nearby tracks, invigorating dips in the sea, and laid-back barbies with friends and family. Of course, there is plenty of versatility on offer too, with the property perfect as a permanent residence, a holiday retreat or an idyllic place to work from home. Your gorgeous view out to the harbour doubles as your gateway to unlimited fishing & boating adventures with many coastlines being accessible from your doorstep.
