About this property
Comfortable mid century home
This mid century modern styled home is a 15-20 minute drive to CBD & Airport.
Main bedroom has queen bed, seconds bedroom a queen bed, third bedroom is a king single with a trundler bed. Fourth bedroom is a sleepout joined by decking, with a queen bed, ensuite with bath & toilet.
A comfortable lounge with dining area, apple TV, including Netflix & wifi throughout the house. The lounge opens on to a sunny north facing deck.
We love coffee, records, tea, greenery, decks, gardening, bbqs, beekeeping and cooking! All that is reflected and offered in our modern home. The kitchen is a dream to cook in with a lot of bench space and everything you need to whip up a meal.
The lounge is comfortable and relaxing for a spot of tv watching, with a wide record collection to put on some tunes. Air conditioner and heat pump to suit make the house just the temperature you like! A stocked herb and vege garden for fresh goodies.
Breakfast and basic items are there so you have your first mornings after you arrive sorted. A range of teas and coffee for you to help yourself to.
The house is in a diverse neighborhood, not far from Sylvia Park, a major shopping and the train station. The motorway is accessible and it's about a 20-minute drive to Auckland's CBD and the airport.
Our house is on the same block as the trinity cemetery. We love it as it's quiet but if you have cultural views about cemeteries then look into the location further.

About the host
Hosted by NIcola Keyworth
Hello! We are the Keyworth family, James, Nicola and our three children WIlliam, Georgia and Eliza. We are a young family and for Nicola to be able to stay at home with the kids we have our place on Homeaway!
Why they chose this property
Back in 2016 we subdivided and relocated this home onto site and did a full renovation. We love the classic 1960’s style homes and have modernised areas to make it more user friendly.
The location of Otahuhu is very convenient and accessible to most parts of Auckland.

Retro mid-century furniture, great record collection to pop on some great music and a fantastic kitchen to work in.
