Perched high on the ridge of Maungakiekie/One Tree Hill and set above Epsom, this unique 1958 architecturally designed home captures some of Auckland’s very best views while placing the green expanse of Cornwall Park almost at your back door.
Designed by renowned architects and crafted from beautiful native timbers, including striking blonde Tawa floors, this sun-filled home carries all the warmth and character and retro coolness of the mid-century era - yet has been lovingly and thoughtfully renovated for today’s sophisticated modernist and contemporary lifestyle.
From the open plan living and kitchen area, you can enjoy a panoramic vista beyond Manukau harbour to Puketutu Island and absorb the magnificent sunsets that glow behind the Waitakere Ranges. This flows to the sheltered deck, perfect for the long summer evenings entertaining and to 'chill' while enjoying the park-like garden, filled with mature native trees that is frequented by kererū, Fantail, Tui and Morepork.
Sublimely peaceful and private, this home offers the rare bonus of a third bedroom/rumpus area/office with a bathroom and kitchenette, which may be turned into a self-contained area ideal for guests, teenagers, or extended family wanting their own space.
Situated a short stroll from Greenwoods corner which boasts an amazing selection of eateries and bars, you’re only a few minutes' drive to Newmarket and Mt Eden and just moments to the city and airport. This is an unbeatable central location yet also truly a private sanctuary.
Striking architecture, elevated, full of soul, and centrally positioned—this is one you simply must see to believe.
The owner is moving south, and this home must be sold. You can be the proud new owner!
