This comprehensively renovated shiplap-clad residence, positioned at the end of an exclusive cul-de-sac, captures a tantalising vista of Rangitoto with sweeping sea views across to the Coromandel. With character-filled 1960s origins and an extensive architectural renovation just recently completed, the home now delivers a luxurious coastal sanctuary complete with a separate one-bedroom guest suite and in-ground swimming pool.

Principal living is positioned on the upper level, where a refined coastal aesthetic prevails. Timber-floored interiors flow effortlessly to expertly designed outdoor zones. An intimate enclosed courtyard with espaliered planting evokes a Mediterranean mood, framed by decking, a palazzo-style paved terrace, and an elegant freestanding fireplace/pizza oven beside the serene pool.

Both the open-plan living and dining area and the separate family lounge feature soaring raked ceilings, while flush-sill bifold doors connect seamlessly to a second sun-soaked deck, ideal for alfresco dining and entertaining. The striking designer kitchen, complete with a cantilevered waterfall island, is a true gourmet centrepiece.
Three of the four bedrooms are located upstairs, including one with an adjoining study, while the master suite offers an ensuite and generous wardrobe space. A beautifully appointed travertine marble bathroom features a freestanding bath, gunmetal tapware, and vessel basin.

Downstairs, the separate one-bedroom guest suite includes a bedroom with ensuite and a lounge opening to a private patio, ideal for extended family, teenagers, visitors, or those working from home.

Internal double garaging and generous storage enhance everyday practicality. The professionally landscaped grounds are easy-care, with a dedicated walkway providing a short stroll to Kohimarama School. Iconic beaches, Madills Farm Reserve, and public transport are all within walking distance for an effortless city commute.
