34 Abercrombie Street, Howick, Auckland

Built in 1848 from hand-sawn Kauri, Cherry Rowe Cottage is Howick's last remaining fencible cottage on its original site. Originally two cottages, it was combined into one home in the 1850s and thoughtfully extended over the years, retaining many original features including Kauri floors, ceilings, doors and historic brick fireplaces.Offering generous accommodation across two levels, the home includes multiple living areas, bedrooms, bathrooms, a conservatory, office space and versatile attic rooms. A separate bedroom with ensuite may also suit guests or boutique Airbnb accommodation, subject to any required approvals.Outside, established gardens create a private oasis with courtyards, a character carport, sheds, playhouse and spa courtyard. A historically designated brick well, extending approximately 25 feet underground, is a unique and treasured feature.Just minutes from Howick Village, cafés, restaurants, Howick Domain, playgrounds, tennis courts, Owairoa Primary School and local beaches, the location is hard to beat.After more than 25 years of ownership, the time has come to let new owners to be part of history and create cherished memories. This is a rare opportunity to secure a significant piece of Howick history with space, character and lifestyle appeal.This remarkable home must be sold and at the current revised price offers exceptional value for money. There are no other homes like this, thousands of folk over time have strolled past casting an enviable gaze, why not instead be the proud owner before the chance is lost for perhaps another quarter of a century.
