Designed by renowned architect Allan Shanahan, this exceptional modern residence is offered to the market for the first time in 13 years, presenting a rare opportunity for a new family to secure a quality home in the heart of prestigious Epsom. Purchased brand new by the current owners and offering a generous floor area of approximately 282sqm (Auckland Council Data), the home has been immaculately maintained, combining timeless architectural design with modern-day practicality.

Set on a flat 431m² corner site with its own private driveway, the home offers excellent privacy and security, enhanced by full fencing and an electric gate. Designed with both entertaining and everyday family living in mind, the heart of the home features a generous open-plan living area, beautifully finished with American oak flooring throughout the downstairs living area, adding warmth, texture, and a sense of understated luxury. The sleek modern kitchen, spacious dining area, and light-filled living space flow seamlessly together, with large sliding doors opening to a landscaped deck and outdoor garden area. A louvred roof provides shelter and shade, allowing for year-round enjoyment.

A separate lounge on the ground floor offers excellent flexibility for larger families, guests, or those seeking a quiet retreat. This level is further complemented by a double bedroom serviced by a full bathroom, ideal for guests, extended family, or a home office. A double garage with internal access completes the ground floor.

Upstairs, the home offers four well-proportioned double bedrooms, including a generous master suite with its own ensuite and walk-in wardrobe. A stylish family bathroom services the remaining bedrooms, while an additional living area on this level provides valuable extra space to suit a variety of family needs.

The location is second to none, positioned within the highly sought-after Double Grammar Zone and offering easy access to local shops, cafes, parks, and everyday amenities. Zoned for Epsom Normal School, Auckland Normal Intermediate, Epsom Girls Grammar School, and Auckland Grammar School, this is an outstanding option for families prioritising education, lifestyle, and long-term value.

Homes of this calibre, architectural pedigree, and scale in such a prime DGZ location are tightly held. Our vendors have given clear instructions to sell — an opportunity not to be missed. Call now.
