7 Benson Road, Remuera, Auckland City, Auckland

First time on the market in 28 years, this architect Buisson-Strez designed, rendered concrete-block family home occupies a full 852m² landscaped site in one of Remuera’s most popular northern-slopes addresses. Featuring striking detailing with vaulted ceilings and exposed heart-rimu interiors, this single level, sprawling home is cleverly light-filled.

The spacious living areas includes a sunk-in lounge with a classic brick fireplace, a family room by the sunny kitchen and a formal dining room that opens out to a landscaped patio adorned with grapevines for alfresco gatherings. There's plenty of room for entertaining and also quiet time with picture windows at every turn.

The bedroom wing has four queen-sized rooms—each with French doors to balconies—including a master with ensuite. Kids will love the pool, which is surrounded by mature landscaping and theres an outside wc.

Located in double Grammar zones with easy proximity to private schools, and only a stroll to fantastic eateries and the Orakei Basin, this solid home offers potential for your personal enhancements, to be enjoyed for another generation, as our owners retire outside of Auckland.
