Overview

A world apart

Wonderfully elevated on a coveted corner site just a block from the cosmopolitan delights of Ponsonby Road sits this substantial and exquisite home. Bordered by high hedging for incredible privacy, step through the front gate and be immediately transported to a European-inspired sanctuary. The mood is timeless and distinctly French. Manicured formal gardens frame the home, while a magnificent north-facing terrace and swimming pool form its private outdoor centrepiece. The wraparound verandah offers another perspective, with the Sky Tower appearing above the greenery as a reminder of just how central you are. Scale and sophistication combine inside the home, where open plan living sits beneath a dramatic pitched ceiling alongside an impeccably appointed chef’s kitchen in stainless steel and marble. This entire space flows directly out to the poolside terrace for effortless entertaining. Two further living rooms include a large family room and a handsome living room/library, complemented by a separate formal dining room. Five bedrooms offer exceptional separation. Two primary suites occupy an entire level each, with the upper suite enjoying its own balcony with breathtaking outlook across the neighbourhood and the Sky Tower centre stage. A fully self-contained garden suite with kitchenette is ideal for guests or extended family. Across the home, 4.5 bathrooms continue the refined aesthetic with beautifully appointed marble-clad and tiled finishes. A special surprise is the substantial wine cellar, an atmospheric setting for tastings and long evenings around the table. Double internal garaging is the icing on the cake. Fully fenced and gated this property feels worlds away from its surroundings, yet Ponsonby’s dining, shopping and neighbourhood life is a stroll away. This is a rare property that marries beautifully composed urban living with a distinctly French accent. Early viewing is recommended. Open homes Thursdays and Sundays 11-11.30am or contact Edward to arrange a private viewing. Auction: 2.00pm, Wednesday 21st October 2026 Bayleys House - 30 Gaunt Street Auckland Central
