25 Hackett Street, St Marys Bay, Auckland

State of grace

Masterful vision meets unadulterated refinement in this grand and sophisticated St Marys Bay residence on a generous 529sqm site with sea views, presenting a living experience like no other.

After recently undergoing a complete transformation in which the original property was completely refitted and a new level added, the result is essentially a new home - one that celebrates the very best in state of the art design while honouring the home's gorgeous timeless heritage.

Step beyond the secure gates and into a world of effortless beauty and light-filled privacy. The entire rear is crafted for entertaining, with its soaring stud and open plan living, dining and designer kitchen - a gourmand's dream thanks to clever storage, scullery, European appliances and striking granite breakfast bar.

This sun-soaked space flows through full-length doors to the covered decking, large heated pool and landscaped garden. Unwind here and take in magical views of the Sky Tower as it lights up at night, or retire to the peaceful leafy wraparound verandah for quiet contemplation. A guest bedroom, second living room and full bathroom also occupy this level.

Upstairs is for relaxation with its stunning family bathroom and two further double bedrooms with built-in wardrobing, alongside a spacious third lounge. The master suite is in a league of its own, spanning the entire back length of the upper floor. Boasting grandstand views of the city and harbour to Rangitoto, it also sports an incredible en suite and walk in wardrobe as well as seamless access to the covered verandah.

Exquisite finishes throughout are a given, including wide oak floors, plush carpet, fabulous storage, central heating and internal access garaging.

Perfectly situated in the St Marys Bay dress circle close to Ponsonby and Jervois Rd, nearby in zone Ponsonby Primary and within easy reach of the CBD, this property will hold huge appeal to the astute buyer.
