30-32 Takutai Street, Parnell, Auckland

Landmark estate

An incomparable offering like nothing seen before. This sprawling Tuscan-style property is made up of several beautiful solid masonry dwellings set amongst terraced gardens, creating an unrivalled estate that presents 1484sqm (more or less) of resort-style living by the water in Parnell.

Tightly held by the same family for over 30 years and expanded upon during that time, the main home is a true Mediterranean villa in floor plan and style. It flows across several levels that open out to alfresco living and views across Hobson Bay. Stunning marble floors lead you to a gourmet's kitchen with dining room adjacent and outdoor entertaining options on several decks. An elegant formal lounge provides a versatile space for hosting indoors with space to accommodate a grand piano.

Accommodation is cleverly placed, with a guest bedroom featuring its own private access and a spacious double bedroom both sharing a chic family bathroom. A third bedroom opens to a private courtyard, while the spectacular primary suite occupies the upper level. With views across the water from a private balcony, ensuite with marble double vanities and marble bath and a spacious dressing room, consider it your very own suite.

Also on the property are two additional dwellings. The first is a spacious library/den/office with kitchenette, ensuite and gas fireplace, lined with native timber floors and with internal access to secure four car garaging. Below the library is a full storage basement.

Across the paved entranceway, follow the stairs past terraced gardens to a Mediterranean-style pavilion. Overlooking the pool and with views across to the water, discover a fabulous living space inside with gas fireplace, kitchen and bar, as well as a bathroom and separate powder room. Multiple alfresco living spots abound, including a covered courtyard with BBQ.

A self-contained studio below the main house and secure off street parking for multiple vehicles complete the picture, while its Double Grammar zoning and close proximity to private schools is the icing on the cake.

This is an unprecedented once-in-a-lifetime property like no other.
