There are positions on Auckland's eastern coastline that simply cannot be created again. 220 Sandspit Road is one of them.
Sitting above Shelly Park Beach on 3,439sqm of lush, bush-framed grounds at the end of an exclusive gated estate, this solid concrete residence commands uninterrupted water views that stretch across the Hauraki Gulf in a way that stops conversation the moment you step outside. The kind of view you never stop noticing, no matter how long you live with it.
Built to a standard that reflects a different era of construction, the 460sqm home is solid concrete with render finish throughout — not a building material chosen for speed or economy, but for permanence. Thoughtfully designed from the outset for both elegant daily living and serious entertaining, the layout has remained true to its original vision. Generous living and dining areas flow to expansive patios and decks that frame the water and the native bush below. The fully equipped Gaggenau kitchen anchors the home's entertaining offering, while a dedicated guest wing, separate gymnasium, and a north-facing heated swimming pool complete a configuration that anticipates every need without excess.
Four bedrooms and two bathrooms are arranged across a floorplan that balances privacy with connection — the kind of layout that works for a couple seeking space and for a family requiring it equally.
The grounds themselves are a rarity — nearly one acre of park-like native planting that creates genuine seclusion while keeping Shelly Park Beach, its turquoise water and white sand, visible from the home above. Shelly Park Primary is one kilometre away. Howick College is two. Local shops are five minutes. Auckland CBD is within comfortable commuting distance.
This is a home that has been lightly lived in and carefully kept — concrete construction ages with dignity, and this one has had time on its side.
For buyers who understand that genuinely irreplaceable positions do not return to the market often, this is the one.
