Designed and built in 1969 by its original owner, a Group Architect, this beautifully renovated mid-century modern home has been thoughtfully updated to preserve its architectural integrity and timeless warmth. Guided by architects Fearon Hay and Cheshire, the renovation carefully retained many original features while introducing contemporary craftsmanship, including a Robyn Labb kitchen, ECC lighting, Italian tapware, and bathrooms by Jenny Anderson, later featured in NZ House & Garden.
Privately positioned within a peaceful Remuera cul-de-sac surrounded by mature native gardens, the home offers 5 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, multiple living spaces, a pool, and exceptional indoor-outdoor flow to lawns and entertaining areas. Designed for family living, the flexible layout provides excellent separation of spaces, while the sun-filled setting, birdsong, and strong connection to nature create a rare sense of calm only minutes from Newmarket, Parnell, and the CBD.
The upstairs master suite provides a private retreat with a generous walk-in wardrobe and ensuite, while additional bedrooms and living areas allow flexibility for families, guests, teenagers, or working from home. A sunken family room with dramatic east-facing windows, wood burner, and extensive timber detailing sits at the heart of the home, opening seamlessly to outdoor spaces designed for year-round enjoyment, from summer evenings by the pool to relaxed winter gatherings around the outdoor fire.
Double Grammar zone and easy access to private schools.
