Remuera's best-kept secret
Driving into Remuera's Entrican Avenue is an experience in itself. Majestically wide, whisper-quiet, family-friendly, and flanked by magnificent leafy plane trees - if you've never been here, you should.
Effectively rebuilt from the ground up in 2008, this striking 1920s family home makes a confident first impression behind its signature red door. Inside, it feels every bit as polished, with generous proportions and a modern layout that connects indoors with outdoors - seamlessly. Featured in Home Magazine, the timeless design by architect Paul Somerford, with interiors by Karen Ngan Kee of Bossley Architects.
The main residence offers a series of well-connected living spaces that work beautifully for both family time and entertaining. Light, flow and practicality are all part of the picture here, with the Poggenpohl kitchen and living areas forming the natural heart of this refined home.
A standout feature is the self-contained granny flat above the double garage. This is a genuine bonus space that opens up a range of possibilities, whether for extended family, independent teenagers, guests, or a separate work-from-home setup.
Maintained to an incredibly high standard, with fixtures and fittings that give the impression of a much newer home, here you can simply move in and enjoy the benefits of space, quality and separation - from day one.
In a location where well-executed family homes are always sought and seldom found, this one stands out for all the right reasons. Offering a lifestyle that works just as well for busy children as it does for adults who value comfort, calm and flexibility.
A truly special place, in the quiet heart of the double Grammar zone, you'll be proud to call this 'best-kept secret' yours - again and again.
