2B Kotare Avenue, Westmere, Auckland

The New Westmere

Architecturally striking and impeccably finished, this exceptional residence presents a different proposition for Westmere: the scale and sophistication of a substantial family home, without the upkeep traditionally associated with the address.

Laid out across three considered levels, the ground floor combines a generous internal- access garage with a large bedroom and bathroom, giving guests, teenagers, extended family or a home office genuine separation.

The middle level is devoted entirely to living. A substantial marble island gives the kitchen its presence, with a generous butler's pantry keeping the practicalities out of sight. Expansive living and dining opens through full-height sliders to covered alfresco living, extending the entertaining space and putting Westmere's sunsets firmly in the frame. A discreet powder room completes an intelligent floor plan.

Above, three generous double bedrooms and two beautifully appointed bathrooms create separation from the living spaces. The master suite takes the prime position, with views stretching across Rawene Avenue to the harbour and an outlook that shifts with the light throughout the day.

Behind the scenes, dual heat pumps with four independently controlled zones deliver precise comfort, while near-new construction brings something increasingly valuable in Westmere: modern building confidence without the compromises or weekend projects.

And that may be the real luxury. Westmere Village, Cox's Bay Reserve, waterfront walks, excellent cafés, restaurants and sought-after schooling are all within easy reach. You get the substance of a genuine family home, an exceptional level of finish, and the freedom to simply lock the door and leave.

For buyers who want Westmere but not the work, this is difficult to replicate. Our vendors are committed to their next move — make yours.
