40A Orakei Road, Remuera, Auckland

Timeless DGZ family entertainer

A substantial home of traditional elegance embraces a relaxed resort-style quality.

Nestled back from the road in an elevated setting and enjoying a westerly aspect over neighbouring Waiata Reserve, this 1960s brick and weatherboard haven delivers exceptional indoor and outdoor living and entertaining spaces across a generous 353sqm floor plan.

Beyond the timeless façade you will find well-designed interiors that capture the natural light through extensive glazing. Offering four bedrooms, three bathrooms, office, formal dining room, separate laundry, gym area and heated swimming pool, it features everything a family of discernment could desire in an exclusive northern slopes position.

Two living areas present spaces for both socialising and finding zen time. One is set up with surround sound making it the ideal teen retreat or large playroom for young children, and the other is a cosy zone with Jetmaster fire for warm, quiet evenings. Both spaces flow seamlessly to the heated pool and outdoor entertaining areas, an oasis that will transport you directly into holiday mode.

The bedrooms on the upper level are all sun-drenched retreats, serviced by modern bathrooms, and there is even a terrace for sunset drinks. The home is immaculately presented throughout, with all the comforts of reverse cycle air conditioning and heating.

Double garaging with ample attic storage sports internal access to the kitchen and casual eating area, ensuring bringing in the shopping and children is stress-free. Off street parking for additional cars is also in place.

On a fee simple 898sqm and situated an easy stroll to Remuera Village's restaurants, cafes and boutiques, you can also enjoy stunning walks through Waiata Reserve. Double Grammar zoning and in close proximity to top private schools complete this superlative picture.
