A Slice of New Zealand Paradise
Savouring an incredible sense of privacy and embracing the magnificent Auckland harbour, this extraordinary 2580sqm sanctuary is a pristine slice of New Zealand paradise. It is a dream retreat for discerning buyers who relish a special connection with the landscape and the ocean, who love to entertain and who value the utmost discretion.
Watch the VIDEO now to hear from the current owners what makes this home and land so incredibly special.
Perfectly balancing the classic elegance of yesteryear with the contemporary style of today, the original Arts and Crafts residence has been enhanced with an inspired renovation by notable architectural firm Fearon Hay.
High ceilings and a profusion of glass allow a symphony of sun and light to illuminate the ground floor's open plan living, dining and kitchen spaces. The views are mesmerising by day and night - encompassing all the activity on the harbour and across the city skyline, as well as the vibrant greens of the native gardens.
The functional chef's kitchen is an entertainer's dream as is the expansive north-facing al fresco terrace complete with built-in Argentinian barbeque.
There's a bathroom and bedroom on this level, as well as office area overlooking the harbour, while upstairs, every bedroom has a harbour view. Two are serviced by the main bathroom and the master suite offers two walk-in robes and an ensuite.
Magnificently landscaped grounds take the property to another level, with the lush gardens creating a truly tranquil restful, restorative sanctuary. Wooden boardwalks and volcanic stone walls meander through the harmony of mature tropical plantings, dense native bush and grand Pohutukawa filled with birdlife, arriving down to the vast circular lawn on the water's edge. This is the perfect place for summer soirees against the backdrop of the cityscape, with the boatshed ideal for storing kayaks and paddleboards that you can launch direct from your garden.
All of this, and it's only a 15 minute ferry ride from the end of the road into the heart of Auckland City for work or play.
