8A Taurarua Terrace, Parnell, Auckland

Unique Sanctuary

Sheltering in an exquisite, exceptionally private setting among abundant birdlife, this unique architectural stunner provides beautifully framed views through the trees - like living artworks for your enjoyment only.

Extensive glazing allows light to flood inside reaching every corner. A clever design using sturdy industrial elements balances steel beams, a bridge across a lofty central atrium space and opaque glass internal doors.

Big, open-plan living dining and entertaining areas spill out through bi-folds to a choice of private sunny courtyards on either aspect and a moody TV room/den beckons quiet contemplation.

All three bedrooms upstairs have their own ensuite and there are two dressing rooms. The master wing has the most exquisite lush green outlook. Storage is impressive throughout, plus a double garage with internal access is complemented by off-street parking. Sturdy construction elements include concrete block and aluminium exteriors.

Retreat to sublime tranquillity in Double Grammar and Parnell School zones, so close to transport options, Parnell Village, Judges Bay, Parnell Baths, local markets and the CBD.

View: Sat/Sun 2.00-2.45pm or by appointment
