11 Canterbury Place, Parnell, Auckland

Award-winning Art Deco

Faithful to the spirit of the original exterior, this 1936 Art Deco home has been masterfully transformed internally for superbly comfortable, modern family living. Exceptional in so many ways, it is one of the last remaining brick and weatherboard, three storey 'turreted' Art Deco homes in Auckland. The thoroughly modern renovation, which marries classic original features with customised contemporary fittings and joinery, won the architect Michael Fisher a 2010 Best Design Award. Its builder, PSL Construction has often won the Master Builder of the Year. de Bruin Judge is the multi-award winning firm that created the stunning kitchen and four bathrooms. Enlarged from two to three levels, to accommodate a massive four car garage, office and storage. The landscaping included creating an entertaining area off the family living and terracing the garden to create a leafy green backdrop with 11 metre heated pool. Features include central core climate control, French oak floors, gas fire place and high studs. Glass cavity sliders separate various rooms - kitchen/family, a hobby room and TV lounge, so they work as individual spaces or one. Four/five bedrooms upstairs, with the piece de resistance being the master ensuite where a raised bath floats in the curve of the turret enjoying harbour views. Within minutes to the CBD, shops/restaurants in the Britomart, Parnell, Rose Gardens, waterfront, Parnell School and double Grammar Zone, this is clearly no ordinary property. Your chance to own a rare Art Deco work of art!
