A residence of this quality is measured less by its dimensions than by its discretion, and here, that discretion begins at the boundary. Set on a freehold 650sqm (mol) site, the property borders open reserve across its front and along one side, no roofline in view, no neighbors' window meeting yours. It's a setting that quietly alters how a home feels: in light, in privacy, in a calm that has become genuinely hard to find.

Inside, the same consideration continues. Five bedrooms and multiple living areas offer exceptional flexibility, but it's the arrangement that sets this home apart. A privately positioned second master bedroom, with its own entrance and en-suite, lends itself naturally to a potential granny suite, home office, or independent living. The principal suite enjoys welcome separation, while three further bedrooms share a spacious family bathroom, a layout that evolves easily with the changing rhythms of family life.

At the center of the home, the kitchen meets the family living and dining space without interruption, then extends out to a deck of real scale, full of light, equally suited to entertaining a crowd or a quiet coffee taken alone, watching the reserve shift through the year. Every living area holds this same connection to the outdoors, without giving up its privacy.

The current owners have invested where it counts. The roof was repointed and recoated (four coats) approximately three years ago and still carries a transferable warranty; new long-run guttering was installed at the same time, backed by a 10-year warranty. Ducted climate control reaches every bedroom, a heat pump serves the main living areas, and underfloor insulation works unseen through the colder months. A separate laundry, double detached garage, and fully fenced, secure grounds complete the practical architecture of the home.

The address falls within zone for Botany Downs School, Howick Intermediate, Howick College and Pakuranga College, with Pakuranga Golf Club, Botany Town Centre, Howick Village and East Care Medical Centre all just minutes away.

Some homes are defined by what they offer. Others by how they make you feel. At 24 Corta Bella Place, it's the openness of the surrounding reserve, the thoughtful privacy of the layout, and the sense of calm that make this home truly unforgettable. Call Ethan today to arrange your private viewing.
