You'll feel as though you've left the central suburbs and stepped into a far more exotic retreat the moment you arrive at this uniquely special property. Set on a freehold 920sqm section, it's framed by swaying palms and lush tropical landscaping, with the sweeping expanse of Churchill Park stretching beyond the rear boundary - a true escape from the everyday. Natural materials, high-end finishes, playful design touches, and a thoughtfully crafted layout all center on lifestyle and seamless connection to the outdoors. Rare in size, style, and configuration, this home is a standout in the Eastern Bays.
The main level unfolds in a long, light-filled wing where the kitchen, dining, and family living run parallel to the patio and covered deck. Wide folding doors open completely, inviting the outdoors in and creating effortless indoor-outdoor flow. Crisp whites and layered neutrals enhance the sense of relaxed sophistication, while verdant garden views, manicured lawns, and the park beyond provide a stunning natural backdrop.
Outdoors is where this property truly shines. The expansive covered deck, complete with a built-in fireplace, creates a statement entertaining zone designed for year-round enjoyment. There's ample space for large gatherings, milestone celebrations, or relaxed weekend lunches with friends, while multiple seating areas allow for both lively entertaining and quiet retreat. Adults can unwind with a drink while children play freely across the generous lawn and into the park beyond.
For quieter moments, a separate lounge provides a cosy haven with a built-in fish tank. This level also includes a luxurious bathroom, laundry, a bedroom, and internal access to a three-car garage - perfect for two vehicles plus a boat. Upstairs, the master suite joins additional bedrooms, bringing the total to five, with a family bathroom servicing the remaining rooms. Leafy outlooks from every window reinforce the home's tranquil, resort-like ambience.
Every detail has been carefully curated to evoke the feel of a private luxury retreat, yet the home remains practical for modern family living. Its generous proportions, 393sqm (approx.) of living space, unique layout, and seamless indoor-outdoor integration make it a rare offering in both form and function.
Despite its serene setting, the property is moments from the Tamaki Estuary and central Glendowie. Beaches, parks, popular schools, and buses along tree-lined Riddell Road - one of the Eastern Bays' most sought-after addresses - are all within easy reach.
