Overview

Architectural Heritage Meets Family Living

Auction: 34 Shortland Street, City on Wednesday 24 June 2026 at 10:00AM (unless sold prior) In a market full of ordinary homes, 38 Sierra Street is genuinely special. Designed by renowned architect James Hackshaw, a founding member of New Zealand's influential Group Architects movement, this beautifully restored residence represents a rare opportunity to secure a piece of architectural heritage in one of Glendowie's most tightly held locations. Celebrated for their timeless design language, Hackshaw homes are defined by natural materials, thoughtful spatial planning and an effortless connection to outdoor living. Designed primarily for single-level living for young families or downsizers, the home also incorporates a clever split-level layout, creating excellent separation for guests, teenagers or extended family while maintaining a natural sense of flow throughout. At the heart of the home lies a sun-soaked central courtyard, creating a natural social hub that connects seamlessly with the living and kitchen spaces. Expansive outdoor entertaining areas and a generous backyard provide the perfect setting for family gatherings, alfresco dining and endless summer enjoyment. Bathed in north-facing sun, the home is thoughtfully positioned to capture light throughout the day while offering a private and peaceful retreat from the outside world. Offering exceptional flexibility, the layout caters to families at every age and stage, with options for multiple living areas, work-from-home spaces or accommodation for extended family and long-term guests. Families will appreciate the sought-after school zones while enjoying easy access to the Eastern Bays coastline, Churchill Park, local cafés and St Heliers village. Combining architectural pedigree, family functionality and an exceptional lifestyle location, 38 Sierra Street is a home that is every bit as special today as when it was first built. This home won't be on the market for long. See you at the open homes or call me for a private inspection.
