The setting back off one of Auckland’s most revered streets provides peace, privacy and a wonderful western aspect over inner Hobson Bay. Architecturally designed by Pip Cheshire, then rebuilt in 2018, it is a vibrant example of easy care city-side living. With secure internal access garaging, the home features spacious open plan living with its large Morgan Cronin kitchen and scullery anchoring the dining and sitting area. Framed by floor to ceiling windows which facilitate an easy step through to landscaped courtyard entertaining with retractable louvred roof, heated inground pool and purpose built barbecue area. The mid-floor offers a brilliant entertainment room that connects to an elevated balcony with a gas fire and great views. The main bedroom with large study/living adjoining is the piece-de-resistance – a genuine retreat, it enjoys the twinkle of city night lights and fabulous views over the bay.
