Steeped in history and set within the city’s tightly held dress-circle location, this beautifully preserved 1919 residence has been meticulously transformed into a refined family sanctuary of rare quality. Honouring its heritage while embracing modern luxury, a substantial renovation and high-end upgrades elevate the home into a new era of comfort, functionality and timeless appeal.
At its heart, original character features remain proudly on display - bay windows with integrated seating and storage, mostly original doors, Matai flooring, striking staircase, and carefully preserved architectural details that speak to the home’s provenance. These elements are seamlessly balanced with contemporary enhancements including full double glazing, insulated internal walls, fire-proofed stairwell, wired fire alarm system and gas central heating, ensuring peace of mind alongside everyday luxury.
The open plan kitchen and dining is a statement in both scale and specification, anchored by an impressive five-metre Corian benchtop, engineered Dekton stone surfaces and splashback, gas hobs, steam oven and thoughtful inclusions such as a dedicated hot water facility within the breakfast bar. Designed to perform for both family life and entertaining, it flows effortlessly into multiple living zones warmed by a woodburner, gas fireplace and heatpump. European sourced pendant lighting also elevates the detail in interiors.
Completed in 2023, the modern extension introduces an entirely separate wing - a sophisticated space ideal for hosting extended family, guests or elevated entertaining. Defined by coffered ceilings, wide-format flooring, this wing opens via stacker doors to Kwila decking, a covered terrace with outdoor fireplace and sweeping views across the heated 9x4m magnesium mineral pool by Narellan Pools. The home is purpose-built for seamless alfresco living. Equally impressive, complete with its own luxurious bathroom featuring a large skylight with rain sensor, heatpump and kitchenette.
Accommodation is generous and flexible, offering five bedrooms, three bathrooms and two living areas. The master suite is a private retreat, featuring integrated cabinetry within the walk-in robe, French doors opening to a covered Kwila terrace, and a beautifully appointed ensuite with bespoke flooring sourced from Lepperton Hall. Upstairs, a dedicated children’s bathroom includes electric underfloor heating, while premium wool carpeting downstairs and nylon carpet above enhance comfort throughout.
Outdoors, the property continues to excel with fully irrigated gardens and lawn, an irrigated glasshouse, protected neighbouring trees ensuring lasting privacy, and practical inclusions such as caravan power points and space for a motorhome or boat. An insulated single internal-access garage with negative ply detailing incorporates a well-designed laundry and extensive storage, complemented by fibre internet connectivity discreetly located under the stairs.
Positioned moments from Pukekura Park (1.2km), Te Henui Walkway (140m), The Bowl of Brooklands (2.4km) and the CBD (2.4km), this exceptional residence represents a rare convergence of heritage, craftsmanship and contemporary family luxury - all underpinned by a Masterbuild Guarantee with eight years remaining. The location is further strengthened by zoning for highly regarded schools including New Plymouth Boys’ High School, New Plymouth Girls’ High School, Highlands Intermediate and Welbourn Primary School. A home of enduring substance, designed to be lived in and loved for generations to come.
