It's hard to believe you are in the heart of Auckland as you are transported to this 235m2 home overlooking your own private 2074m2 of native bush with pathways through the Pohutukawas and Nikau ferns and home to the chorus of Tuis and Wood Pigeons; yet only minutes away from the bustle of the Birkenhead shops, Little Shoal Bay with its' Reserve and just around the corner to the popular Bridgeway Theatre, local cafes, bars and the CBD only a short ferry ride away.
The vision of the architect Ray van Wayenburg and subsequently the present owners has created a masterwork defying comparison, a distinctive and incomparable contemporary home that is perfectly suited to today's modern lifestyle with diverse spaces to suit both individual and family needs while still being functional and beautiful.
The innovative use of lines, space and volume, the clever combination of the elements, timber, concrete, glass and wood and an attention to detail enhance the splendour of each and every area of this stunning home. The voluminous living space is bathed in northerly sun and provides a gallery to display your art works. From this central hub are the entertainers' kitchen, separate family room and office. Continue upstairs where you will find a fabulous vaulted ceiling, three double bedrooms, bathroom and an elegant master bedroom with a spacious ensuite and walk-in wardrobe seemingly suspended above the peaceful forest, enjoying the glorious view from the massive picture windows.
From the spacious open living area, the bank of glass doors and windows run floor to ceiling allowing a seamless connection to the outdoor entertaining areas, water feature complete with an original sculpture, huge private deck with shade sails and beyond to the lush green oasis. Add to this car parking for two, plenty of storage and the picture is complete....
