Showstopping Luxury and Views
Imagine seaside serenity in the heart of the central suburbs - a home that feels like a luxurious retreat every day of the week. Here, location, lifestyle, and design unite in perfect harmony to create a family residence that truly stands apart. With the Orakei Basin in your backyard and the city skyline just moments away, this is where convenience meets coastal calm.
The home's striking dark exterior makes an immediate impression, while inside, light-filled spaces and timeless style await. Recently renovated to a high standard, the interiors balance sophistication and comfort - from the spectacular, high-spec wood-and-marble kitchen to the beautifully finished bathrooms.
Upstairs, both living areas frame the star of the show - the sparkling Orakei Basin. Expansive glass balustrades ensure uninterrupted views, making the balcony an idyllic spot for parents to unwind with morning coffee or sunset drinks while keeping an eye on the kids below. The master suite, complete with walk-in wardrobe, expansive ensuite, and generous storage, also enjoys this serene outlook.
Downstairs, three additional bedrooms, two modern bathrooms, and rumpus/living area for the kids of all ages or multi-generational living. Each member can have their own private retreat, while shared spaces are designed for togetherness. Step outside to your resort-style oasis - a fenced pool and spa area, outdoor fireplace, and expansive lawn provide endless entertainment for children, family, and friends. The backyard is perfect for games, play, and alfresco gatherings, making this home as functional as it is stylish.
Set on 1,206sqm (approx.) of freehold land, this property offers a double carport, extra off-street parking, ample storage, and a private pathway through native bush leading straight to the water's edge - your gateway to jet skiing, waterskiing, or a peaceful paddle at any time.
With Orakei Train Station just a 10-minute stroll away, nearby bus routes, Benson Road restaurants/cafes, and some of Auckland's most desirable schools close at hand, the lifestyle here is as practical as it is picturesque. Enjoy morning runs along Tamaki Drive or evening strolls on the Orakei Basin Path at your doorstep - the very definition of walkable luxury.
Don't miss your chance to secure this extraordinary waterfront home - a rare offering in an unforgettable location. Viewing by appointment only.
