They say that the current pandemic will cause many of us to review our lifestyle and pursue a simpler, 1960s style of life. Well I say, if you're going to do it then why not get an original 60s mid-century design house to go with the lifestyle! Built in 1964, this extremely well-maintained home is still almost exactly as the builder and architect had designed it (I have the original plans to prove it). Exuding an abundance of character features and charm paired with a simple layout all on an elevated block that enjoys panoramic views, soft breezes and a very short walk to Akuna parkland. First home buyers, downsizers, renovators and developers alike will genuinely love what is on offer here!
