Rent 2 bedroom apartment in Ōrākei

Nature lovers, this one's for you!
Elevated, spacious, airy and sunny two-bedroomed duplex house.
Open plan with original kitchen and sunroom/foyer.
Gets the all-day sun and all windows look out onto trees. It's the next-best thing to living in a treehouse!
Two double bedrooms, both with built-in wardrobes.
Basic bathroom with bath over shower and vanity. Separate toilet.
Good-sized laundry with slimline supertub.
The cosy lounge is heated by a log burner.
One bedroom gets the early morning sun, the other gets the late afternoon sun.
While it is a duplex and therefore advertised as a unit, the layout, size and feel of the place is more like a house with a large carport underneath.
While on a main road for great transport links, it's well back from the road and super quiet. It's such a tranquil oasis that even during rush hour, all you can hear is the rustling of leaves and birdsong. The garden is home to native birds, monarch butterflies and skinks. People have been really surprised to find such a place in what is fairly central Auckland.
In zone for St Thomas' School and Selwyn College, it is very close to reserves, walking paths and beaches. Great access to schools, supermarkets and public transport. Everything that life in "The Bays" has to offer!
Pets are on a case-by-case basis but it's probably more suited to a cat (cat flap in laundry door) or a homebody dog, as the place is not fenced. In fact, the sloping back yard, complete with fruit trees and a vege-growing area, backs onto Kohi forest with its Eastern Songbird restoration project. A bit of bushwhacking takes you right through to the Pamela Pl reserve.
There is a rumpus area under the house that is not part of this tenancy, although interested parties can enquire about also renting it for an additional weekly sum, for example as a home office.
