60 Clifton Road, Whitford, Auckland, New Zealand

A Private World of Your Own

Behind the gates of 60 Clifton Road, something quite unexpected unfolds.

Approximately five acres of extraordinary established grounds surround a substantial private residence where family, friends and generations can come together – with enough space for everyone to disappear when they choose.

This is a property designed around living well.

Swim, play tennis, entertain outdoors, wander through magnificent gardens or simply enjoy the peace of having your own private world around you. Sweeping lawns, mature specimen trees, waterways and a beautiful pond create an environment that feels more like a private retreat than an Auckland residence.

Crowned by its distinctive copper roof, the home has been cleverly arranged across separate accommodation wings connected by a central linkway. With eight bedrooms, expansive living spaces and independent guest accommodation, there is genuine flexibility for extended family, international guests, teenagers, staff or multi-generational living without compromising privacy.

From the upper levels, views extend towards the sea, while outside a swimming pool, tennis court and entertaining pavilion create a resort-like environment for long lunches, summer evenings and weekends spent entirely at home.

For those who value security and discretion, the estate is privately positioned behind gates and beautifully screened by its established landscape.

Despite the sense of escape, you’re still within reach of Auckland – making The Sanctuary equally compelling as a permanent family residence, an Auckland base or somewhere to retreat between international travel.

Five acres. Eight bedrooms. Pool. Tennis. Sea views. Complete privacy.

Some properties impress with their architecture. Others with their land. The Sanctuary is remarkable because it gives you both – and an entire lifestyle within the gates.

Private inspections are available by appointment.
