Perched directly above one of Auckland's most beloved beaches, 32 Carlton Crescent offers something that simply cannot be manufactured: an extraordinary vantage point over Maraetai Beach, the iconic wharf, the historic Boat Club on the water, and sweeping views across the Tamaki Strait to Waiheke Island beyond.
This is a site that discerning buyers dream about. Freehold, single house zoned and elevated to capture views from almost every angle. If the existing home were removed tomorrow, this would stand as one of the finest building sites in the area. Whether you envision a contemporary coastal masterpiece or a relaxed beachside retreat, the canvas is yours.
Alternatively, you could enjoy the existing 1970s home which offers two levels of accommodation, with the upper level delivering the full lifestyle experience. Three bedrooms including a north-facing master that opens directly onto the main deck share a family bathroom, while the open-plan living, dining and kitchen flows seamlessly to the north-facing deck where those unforgettable views take centre stage. There's also a handy separate laundry and carport on this level.
The lower-level surprises with its sheer scale. An enormous rumpus room complete with a built-in bar opens out to a generous flat lawn that enjoys the same jaw-dropping outlook. A fourth bedroom, second bathroom, and large storage room complete this level, with the flat section below made possible by a beautifully crafted feature rock retaining wall.
Step outside and you're immersed in the Maraetai lifestyle. Watch swimmers and boaties from your own deck. Walk to local restaurants, bars, and the well-loved coastal walkways that connect the community. Enjoy the relaxed, beachy pace of village life while knowing Botany Downs is just 20 minutes away when you need it.
Opportunities like this are rare and do not linger. The home is being sold in its current condition, and the price reflects the true value here the land, the location, and the limitless potential. Whether you want to rebuild or renovate, bring your architect, bring your vision, and come prepared to bid.
