Perfect for serious art and car collectors!
An extraordinary offering unlike anything else in Parnell, this remarkable Tuscan-inspired estate spans approximately 1,484sqm across a collection of beautifully crafted buildings nestled amongst terraced gardens. Occupying a coveted position overlooking Hobson Bay, it delivers a rare resort-style lifestyle of scale, privacy, and distinction.
Cherished by the same family for more than three decades and thoughtfully expanded over time, the principal residence embodies the essence of a Mediterranean villa. Arranged across multiple levels, it seamlessly connects elegant interiors with sun-soaked terraces, alfresco entertaining spaces, and captivating water views.
Striking marble flooring guides you through to the kitchen and adjoining dining room, while numerous outdoor living areas provide options for entertaining on any scale. A sophisticated formal lounge offers an impressive setting for hosting guests, complete with space for a grand piano.
The accommodation has been thoughtfully configured. A guest suite with its own private entrance and a generous double bedroom share a stylish family bathroom, while a third bedroom opens to a secluded courtyard. Occupying the upper level, the sumptuous primary suite enjoys harbour views from its private balcony and features a luxurious ensuite with marble vanities, a marble bath, and a dressing room.
Complementing the main residence are two substantial ancillary buildings. The first is an impressive library, office, or retreat, complete with kitchenette, ensuite, gas fireplace, and native timber flooring, with internal access to secure four-car garaging. A large basement storage area is located beneath.
Across the paved courtyard and beyond the terraced gardens lies a stunning pavilion. Overlooking the swimming pool and Hobson Bay beyond, this space incorporates a lounge with kitchen and bathroom. Multiple outdoor entertaining zones surround the pavilion, including a covered courtyard with built-in barbecue facilities.
A self-contained studio beneath the main residence provides further flexibility for guests, extended family, or staff accommodation. Secure off-street parking for multiple vehicles, sought-after Double Grammar Zone status, and close proximity to Auckland's leading private schools complete this exceptional offering.
Rarely does a property of such scale, character, and versatility become available. A true legacy estate, this is a once-in-a-generation opportunity to secure one of Parnell's most remarkable residences.
