Substantial, sophisticated and designed to make the most of its elevated outlook upstairs, this impressive five-bedroom residence delivers contemporary luxury on a grand scale.

Recently built (2023) to high specifications, this stunning home spans two generous levels, with the main living positioned upstairs to capture distant water views and create a wonderful sense of light and space.

At the heart of this level is an impressive designer kitchen, complete with scullery and complimented by expansive open-plan living and dining, and a generous balcony offering an exceptional setting for effortless entertainment with family and friends.

The luxurious master suite is also positioned upstairs, featuring an impressive walk in robe and fancy ensuite, a second bedroom with its own ensuite bathroom plus a dedicated office or single bedroom completes the upstairs layout.

Downstairs, a formal living room which can be shared by all, providing valuable separation and flexibility, accompanied by two bathrooms and three bedrooms including a fully self-contained guest suite thoughtfully configured as a parents retreat with its own kitchenette, ideal for Grandma and Grandad, teenagers, or short-term visitors.

These well-thought-out features continue outdoors, with a massive fully fenced backyard, rare these days, which has been impeccably landscaped for maximum enjoyment. Kiss lawnmowing goodbye - as this property features a low-maintenance astro-turf lawn, a pergola for outdoor entertainment and your own golf putting hole. There is also plenty of room for a game of lawn cricket or football between the children and the young at heart.

To conclude, a double internal access garage, separate laundry and exceptional off-street parking. Offering valuable hard surfaces for parking additional vehicles, a large camper van or the boat, all secured by solid electric gates, making this a property a retreat to enjoy without compromise.

Conveniently positioned within a short stroll of the Beachlands waterfront, scenic reserves and within an easy 10-minute commute of Formosa Golf Club, and Pine Harbour Marina, where regular ferry services provide a useful connection to Auckland's CBD.

The vibrant Pohutukawa Coast Shopping Centre is only approx 15-20 minutes away on foot (1 km) with the bus stop for schools or the city opposite, catering for all age groups.
