A Heritage Cottage in Mt Eden

Hillside Crescent South is one of those rare streets you've probably never driven down – and that's exactly how the locals like it. Tucked away from the hustle, it's a quiet enclave where early period homes sit beautifully alongside art-deco apartments and contemporary designs, creating a neighbourhood rich in character and charm.

At number 17, you'll find one of those delightful early cottages that tell a story. In a former life, it welcomed visitors as Tea Rooms for those exploring the mountain. Today, it's waiting for someone with a passion for restoration to step in, roll up their sleeves, and bring its former glory back to life. If you love timber, original details, and the chance to put your own stamp on a piece of history, this is your project.

From the street, it's modest – but step through to the living area and out onto the back veranda, and you'll discover a hidden oasis. It's so serene, the only interruptions will come from Tuis singing in the trees or native wood pigeons gliding overhead. Out the back, a studio offers endless potential – whether you're an artist needing a creative sanctuary, a musician after a quiet space to play, or a potter looking for the perfect workshop.

And the location? It's hard to beat. Zoned for Mt Eden Normal School, Auckland Normal Intermediate, Auckland Grammar, and Epsom Girls Grammar, and just a short stroll to the boutique shops, cafés, and bars of Mt Eden village, this home offers lifestyle and convenience in one beautiful package.

This is the Mt Eden opportunity you've been waiting for – a character-filled cottage with good bones, ready for its next chapter. Don't let it pass you by. Come and see the potential for yourself – arrange a viewing today.
