Esclusivo Rifugio Progettato Da Un Architetto In Un Lussureggiante Ambiente Tropicale

Privately positioned on an exclusive right of way, this architecturally designed residence offers an exceptional blend of refined design, family functionality and an enviable Double Grammar location.

Set within a beautifully landscaped 611sqm (approx.) section, the home is surrounded by lush tropical planting and mature palms, creating a peaceful sense of retreat while remaining moments from Benson Road shops, Orakei Basin and some of Auckland’s most sought-after schools.

The striking cedar-clad exterior sets the tone for the modernist interiors, thoughtfully oriented to embrace the northern aspect and natural light. Inside, soaring ceiling heights, crisp white walls and solid oak floors create an elegant yet welcoming atmosphere, complemented by plantation shutters and carefully considered architectural details throughout.

At the heart of the home, the designer kitchen combines Bosch appliances with a stainless-steel benchtop and distinctive stone-topped island featuring a cantilevered oak breakfast bar. The generous open-plan living and dining areas connect effortlessly to the outdoors through expansive bifold doors, creating an exceptional setting for entertaining or relaxed family living.

Tiered decking extends into the lush courtyard garden, where established palms, raised garden beds and carefully landscaped grounds create a private outdoor sanctuary.

Accommodation is equally impressive, with four generous bedrooms plus a substantial upstairs office that could easily serve as a fifth bedroom. The master suite enjoys its own balcony, walk-in wardrobe and beautifully tiled ensuite, while three sophisticated bathrooms provide exceptional convenience for family life.

A double garage and additional off-street parking complete the picture.

For families seeking a home that combines architecture, space, privacy and exceptional education options, this is a rare opportunity. Zoned for Auckland Grammar School, Epsom Girls Grammar School and Remuera Intermediate, with Saint Kentigern School also within easy walking distance, the location is particularly compelling.

Add the convenience of Orakei Basin, local cafés and shops, easy motorway access and the surrounding coastal lifestyle, and this is a home that offers far more than just a beautiful address.

Architectural character. Double Grammar. Private tropical sanctuary. A truly special family home.
