20 Martin Avenue, Remuera, Auckland City, Auckland

Presenting one of Auckland’s truly magical homes. Sitting at the highest point on prestigious Martin Avenue and orientated for unobstructed grandstand sea and city views, this 1920s classic has been beautifully modernised and updated by the owners into an extraordinary sanctuary.

Beyond the charming storybook street appeal lies a sprawling yet intentional residence that prioritises comfortable, stylish family life across an internal 536sqm. From the gorgeous entry foyer with its elegant light-filled central stairway, follow the rich herringbone parquet floors through to multiple living and entertaining spaces.

The beautifully appointed new kitchen with scullery and breathtaking views flows into a sophisticated living area that spills out to a sun-soaked terrace. Host and dine al fresco as the waters of the infinity pool and spa merge with the blue of the Orakei Basin.

A separate formal dining room is positioned to capture the stunning outlook, an unforgettable backdrop that will impress at every dinner party. A large living room with centrepiece fireplace plus a media den at the front of the home provide exceptional spaces for relaxation and entertaining.

On the upper level is the oversized primary suite with jetliner views across the Basin, large walk in closet and luxe ensuite. Three further double bedrooms and a home office are serviced by a spacious family bathroom.

Above the four car garaging discover a superb self-contained space with kitchenette and bathroom. Currently utilised as a teen retreat and games room, it features double glazing, sound proofing and built in speakers, making it ideal as a studio bedroom or accommodation for guests or the au pair.

Set on a full 961sqm site with manicured gardens in one of Remuera’s quietest and most private premier positions, this is a beautiful family home where compromise has not been considered.
