Architecturally designed. Newly completed. Resort-inspired. A landmark home in one of Parnell’s most prestigious positions.

In the heart of coveted Parnell, this newly completed architectural masterpiece presents a rare opportunity to secure one of Auckland’s most significant luxury residences. Designed by acclaimed architect Brent Hulena and completed in 2025, the home delivers grand scale, resort-style living and breathtaking harbour views across approximately 535 Sq m of meticulously crafted interiors, positioned on an elevated 809 Sq m freehold site.

Set behind secure dual-gated entrances from both Glanville Terrace and Lichfield Road, the residence immediately conveys privacy, prestige and permanence. Its timeless composition of brick, cedar, weatherboard and concrete creates a commanding presence, while expansive floor-to-ceiling glazing floods the home with natural light and frames sweeping views across Hobson Bay and the surrounding coastline.
