A residence of this calibre defies comparison. Representing the pinnacle of contemporary living, this is a home that feels both state-of-the-art and enduringly classic.
Architecturally designed by David Ponting of Ponting Fitzgerald Architects, the result is a breathtaking recalibration of what modern design can be. Its striking louvred façade and symmetrical lines bring a bold attention-stealing street presence, beautifully accented by a sculptural Japanese cloud tree. Step through the front door and the home unfolds as a curated masterclass in scale, light and proportion, where every detail has been considered.
Volume takes centre stage, with the dramatic high-void entrance and vaulted ceilings creating an immediate sense of occasion. Visible from the grand hallway is the vast open plan living zone at the rear that transitions effortlessly to the private, north-facing and immaculately maintained garden framed by Italian cypress and Japanese maple trees. This beautifully landscaped sanctuary delivers the pinnacle of family living, where a generous heated swimming pool, expansive flat lawn, and ample outdoor space set the stage for effortless entertaining and long, leisurely afternoons.
This al fresco setting also creates a breathtaking backdrop to everyday living and hosting in the open plan interior, where the refined kitchen is complemented by a generous scullery with laundry.
The accommodation is equally compelling. All four generous bedrooms are thoughtfully situated on the same level, including the primary, which offers a retreat-like experience with its walk in robe and luxurious ensuite. Similarly, the beautifully appointed family bathroom and guest powder room combine function and practicality.
The lower level reveals a dedicated movie room, temperature-controlled wine cellar,
oversized garaging for two large vehicles plus the jet ski or additional toys, and extensive storage solutions including a secondary laundry that ensure practicality is never compromised. A fully automated smart system places indoor and outdoor lighting, blinds, irrigation and premium security at your fingertips.
Discreet from the street yet revealing a remarkable sense of scale and depth once inside, this is a home that must be experienced to be truly appreciated. Designed for effortless family living on 860sqm, it sits just a short stroll from the Benson Road shops and moments from the Orakei Basin walkway. This is a turnkey architectural masterpiece with nothing left to do.
