Acclaimed local architecture, with worldly interior style - this captivating Epsom classic is an icon on the suburb's coveted Mountain Road. A family home with scale and stature, that expertly blends a proud past with modern luxuries for the future.
Known as Stoneways, this warm and connected Double Brick Construction home has been much enjoyed by its current family in recent years. Undergoing a process of careful modernisation, the result speaks for itself.
Exquisite European interiors are evident at every turn, while a new kitchen, butler's pantry, bar and service area make for effortless summer dining and soirees. Commercial-grade WiFi has been fitted throughout, while ducted gas heating moderates the many corners of this expansive home. Its flexible footprint remains in sync with families of all ages and stages - including formal and relaxed living plus additional self-contained quarters downstairs.
Architect William Gummer (of renowned Ford and Gummer) had the foresight to create spaces and places for every mood, designing this 1926 home as his own. Young ones can roam the manicured front lawn, set privately underneath established trees. Take tea in the loggia, an aperitif on the rooftop - or add a pool at the rear. This full section occupies pride of place across from sought-after Auckland Grammar School. The bustle of nearby Newmarket, Parnell and CBD is there when you need it, and at arm's length when you don't.
A stalwart of Auckland architecture - the likes of which are rarely seen on the market. 46 Mountain Road's meticulous modernisation honours its heritage, culminating in breath-taking spaces that work for both entertaining and family life.
