A timeless collaboration between builder and developer Cameron Ireland and architect Jack McKinney, this elegant five-bedroom residence is pure Ponsonby perfection.
Immaculately presented to the highest standards, the urban sanctuary opens with three light-filled double bedrooms, one with French doors opening out to the classic villa front veranda, and all sharing a supremely chic bathroom with premium European tiling and a designer bath. A guest powder room is thoughtfully included, accessed via the spacious laundry for containing the chaos of modern family life.
Walk through to a true statement in design and elevated construction in the form of open plan, dual entertaining areas, with gallery height stud and butterfly wing ceiling providing a focal point you’ll never tire of. Finished to the highest calibre, the entertainer’s kitchen is anchored by a length of Italian marble island bench and comes with an abundance of storage and triple ovens, while the scullery adjacent has a separate entry for caterers and plenty of space for prep. Heated Italian tile flooring ensures the entire space is comfortable year-round, while during the summer months, you’ll appreciate the ability to open the entire wing up to the elements and walk directly out to private alfresco living spaces. The lush, north-facing tropical garden and solar heated pool are an oasis all their own, the ultimate in resort style at home.
Upstairs is the generous primary, a study in superlative style with a chic ensuite, expansive walk-in robe and skylights bringing the beauty of the outside in. A space adjacent could be configured as a fifth bedroom, nursery or office depending on your needs. Securing garaging for one and off street for another completes the picture.
Sitting at the doorstep of Ponsonby Road’s hustle and bustle but offering a serene haven of modern family living, this architecturally crafted executive residence is your invitation to city fringe style in an impeccable location.
