On the market for the first time in 25 years, this is a rare chance to secure one of the North Shore's most iconic waterfront estates. Nestled on a secluded 5,488sqm site at the end of an exclusive cul-de-sac in desirable Greenhithe, this breathtaking property boasts approximately 200 metres of direct water frontage with riparian rights — an unparalleled privilege offering rare and uninterrupted access to the water.
Whether it's kayaking at sunrise, paddleboarding with the kids, launching your boat, or simply soaking up the serenity, this is waterfront living at its most intimate and inspiring. The gently sloping site leads to your own private shoreline, complete with vehicle access, wide open lawn space, and hidden nooks waiting to be explored.
Architecturally rebuilt by Bruce Elton, the single-level home was purpose-designed to embrace its stunning surroundings. Floor-to-ceiling glazing framed in redwood captures sweeping views from every room, while volcanic Auckland rock and copper detailing elevate the exterior to a statement of timeless craftsmanship.
Inside, the home blends effortless elegance with relaxed liveability. Expansive, sun-filled living areas offer an inviting environment for both family life and grand-scale entertaining. A formal lounge with fireplace creates the perfect winter retreat, while warm sea breezes flow through wide doors to a choice of outdoor entertaining areas in the warmer months. The open-plan dining zone—easily seating 14—flows into a gourmet kitchen adorned with polished marble splashbacks and premium Miele appliances including steam oven, induction cooktop, warming drawer, and more.
Outdoors, a heated saltwater pool with diving board promises hours of summer fun, framed by sweeping water views and beautifully landscaped gardens. Mature native trees, including Rimu, Nikau, and Kauri, attract abundant birdlife and form a lush, private backdrop. Extensive lighting, sandstone-paved pathways, an irrigation system, and curated plantings create a peaceful garden sanctuary that’s been lovingly developed over two and a half decades.
The home’s layout has been thoughtfully considered, with the master suite and two double bedrooms opening to the poolside for a luxury resort-style feel. A private guest wing includes a fourth bedroom and third bathroom with its own garden access—perfect for extended family or visitors. All bathrooms feature timeless marble flooring.
Additional highlights include:
Oversized double garage + six off-street parks
Drive-through driveway with electric gates
Separate laundry and woodshed
Room for a boat, trailer or campervan
Boatshed for kayaks and paddleboards
Zoned for prestigious schools including Albany Junior and Senior High, Kristin and Pinehurst, and with easy motorway access to the CBD, North Shore and Northwest business hubs, this unique retreat offers the best of both worlds—absolute privacy, and ultimate convenience.
Whether you’ve been searching in Takapuna, Milford, the Bays, Dairy Flat, Herald Island, Paremoremo or Coatesville—this Greenhithe property will delight and eclipses expectations.
A legacy home. A lifestyle without compromise. A waterfront haven you won’t see again.
