14 Taurarua Terrace, Parnell, Auckland

The Parnell villa, reimagined

Designed to replicate the silhouette of a traditional Parnell villa from the street, step inside to discover a world of liveable contemporary sophistication. Architecturally designed by Peter Sargisson and completed in 2016, this is a home that elevates uncomplicated living to an artform.

Follow the solid oak floors along the wide hallway running down the spine of the spacious 330sqm house and into the sun-drenched open plan living zone. Stealing the limelight is the breathtaking Studio Italia Poliform kitchen. With its integrated appliances and island topped with a single piece of solid slate, this is a dream space for those who love to create culinary magic.

Sliders open up to the elevated deck for seamless entertaining surrounded by mature tropical gardens and spectacular views towards the harbour. A second deck nestled in the rear landscaped gardens below offers additional outdoor space to enjoy.

A floating oak staircase is its own work of art and leads up to three large loft style bedrooms perfect for the children or guests. The primary suite is on the living level, offering an amazing alternative to single level apartment living and encompassing a generous walk in robe, spa-like ensuite and its own access to the private landscaped front garden, an oasis from the street with its established hedging.

Below is a large versatile office that could be used as a gym room, a separate laundry and double car garaging plus further off street parking, a rarity in popular Parnell.
Exceptional features include a suspended concrete midfloor, vertical cedar cladding and over height double glazed architectural series joinery.

This coveted location on a quiet street is just around the corner from Rosie Café and a stroll to the Parnell village boutiques and eateries, the Rose Gardens, Judge's Bay and the tennis club. A refined retreat for modern lifestyles.
