Perched above the sparkling Waitemata Harbour, this rare 707m² coastal sanctuary captures breathtaking panoramic views across the Gulf islands. It is a constantly changing seascape few homes can truly claim.

Exceptionally sheltered, warm and private, the substantial 4-bedroom family residence offers a lifestyle that feels worlds away, moments from the city and Eastern Bays amenities. It was designed for effortless entertaining and relaxed family living and flows seamlessly to expansive outdoor spaces framed by peace, birdsong and views. You may even see dolphins and orca whales swimming by. Whether hosting long summer lunches, evening cocktails as the sun sets across the Gulf, or simply enjoying the calm, it is a home to re-connect or escape.

There are 3 large bedrooms upstairs (including a large master suite); on the lower level, a self-contained apartment (ideal for extended family or guests) plus a study with a sea view.

Karaka Bay below is steeped in history. Auckland-based Maori chiefs gathered here in 1840 to sign the Treaty of Waitangi. It adds a unique sense of heritage to this extraordinary coastal setting.

Launch your dinghy from the water’s edge to go fishing; visit Browns Island or arrange your own private swing mooring and enjoy immediate access to the boating playground of the Hauraki Gulf. A friendly street community gets together for regular social gatherings. Many locals enjoy a daily walk through farmland in nearby Churchill Park.

Tightly held and rarely available, this is an extraordinary opportunity. Secure one of Glendowie’s most peaceful and captivating coastal positions for your family.
