Some addresses are bought. Others are earned through patience, timing and a little good fortune. Kingfisher Grove belongs to the second kind. Tucked into a quiet coastal enclave in Greenhithe, this is a street that people wait for. The homes here sit on generous sections, the neighbours tend to stay for decades, and opportunities to join them come along only rarely. After walking 1,100km around Auckland’s edges, broadcaster Marcus Lush in the year 2014 had seen nearly every prestigious road the city has to offer, and this was the one he named its best. Now, number 27 offers you the chance to call it home. This is not a house that was settled for. When the owners first secured their place on Kingfisher Grove, they chose not to make do with the existing home but built again from the ground up. Around ten years ago, Sentinel Homes created this approximately 310sqm residence in brick, polished concrete block and weatherboard, crafted for easy care and lasting quality. Inside, the home is thoughtfully arranged, with living areas in one wing and bedrooms in the other. There are five bedrooms, three bathrooms (two of them ensuites), two separate living areas, and a hangout corner for the kids which flows out to the carpeted garage which they use as their rumpus area so there is space for everyone and privacy when it matters. The kitchen, with its walk-in scullery, opens directly to decking that wraps around the home. There are also a separate laundry and heaps of storage including rooftop attic space above the garage. Beyond the doors lies the true reward: a level 1630sqm section, gated with a broad lawn, a swimming pool, and a cabana ready to welcome a spa. A private walkway right on their backyard leads to the water’s edge, where mornings might begin with a quiet paddle and evenings end with a line in the water. It’s a privilege few Auckland homes can offer. For a decade this has been a joyful family home. It now awaits its next custodians. It suits those stepping down from a larger lifestyle property without giving up space or setting, those seeking effortless single-level living in their next chapter, or a family ready to grow up somewhere truly special. Places on Kingfisher Grove are rarely offered and quickly treasured. This is your invitation. Some images have been AI enhanced
