Description
A LEGACY OF CRAFTMANSHIP AND NATURE For the first time in over a quarter of a century, this cherished estate is offered to the market. This isn't just a home; it is a two-hectare labour of love, meticulously developed by its builder-owner over 26 years to create a lifestyle that balances architectural integrity with the raw beauty of the local landscape.
THE MAIN RESIDENCE: A BUILDER'S OWN Designed with volume and light in mind, the primary home is a testament to quality. High-stud ceilings create an immediate sense of spaciousness, while the layout is perfectly tuned for the modern professional family.
- Versatile Living: Comprising 4–5 generous bedrooms complemented by dedicated office/study spaces, offering the ultimate flexibility for remote work, creative pursuits, or a growing family.
- The Heart of the Home: Light-filled living areas flow seamlessly to expansive decking, positioned perfectly to capture some of the most breathtaking sunsets in Auckland.
THE GROUNDS: A PRIVATE ECOSYSTEM Follow the picturesque driveway to discover a hidden gem. The centrepiece is a stunning 40-metre handmade rock wall, supporting a delightful garden designed by the renowned Judy Laity, displaying an array of colour for many months of the year.
*Nature at your Door: Share your morning coffee with the resident hawk, rosellas, quail, and wood pigeons.
*The Land: Beyond the vegetable gardens and pond lies 2.5 acres of covenanted bush—a magical playground for children to explore and create lifelong memories of outdoor adventure.
*The Locals: The property includes well-fenced paddocks, currently home to two very friendly resident sheep who could stay on and welcome the new owners.
THE SECONDARY DWELLING: QUALITY & INCOME Located down its own private driveway, the 80-square-metre secondary dwelling (completed in 2020) defies the standard definition of a minor unit.
*Premium Living: Featuring three bedrooms and a tasteful, modern build with its own large garden, covered parking, and private decked entertaining area.
*Immediate Return: The dwelling is currently rented to tenants who are keen to stay on, providing an effortless transition for those looking for bonus income or an investment head-start.
YOUR NEW START IN PARADISE Rarely do we see a property that offers such a profound sense of 'home' alongside such practical versatility. If you are looking to escape the ordinary and secure a foothold in one of the region's most serene pockets, this is your opportunity.
