Whare Tane - An Architectural Masterpiece

Whare Tane is an avant garde 1920s residence commissioned and occupied for prominent illustrator and principal cartoonist at the NZ Herald Trevor Lloyd for 32 years, notable for popularising the Kiwi as New Zealand's national icon. Whare Tane has aesthetic significance for the austerity and strength of its exterior design, its setting on the slopes of Maungawhau and its mature garden of informal design. The three-storey house was constructed in 1925-6, designed by Scottish born Architect John Anderson and built by Archibald Frame (a stonemason). The style combines forward thinking architecture with expressions of influence of American Architect Frank Lloyd Wright with a strong awareness of New Zealand's natural and cultural landscape.

The time has come for the mantle to be passed. Your flair and imagination will be set free in this astonishing property. Also for sale is the adjoining 1230m² section. Buy one or both.
