+27Beyond its elegant villa frontage, this is a home that simply feels right. Held and refined over two decades as the personal residence of an award-winning architect, it is a masterclass in considered, relaxed design.
Fully fenced and secure, with double garaging at the rear, this freehold property occupies an elevated, north-facing position, capturing all-day sun in one of Westmere's most coveted streets.
From the street, the charm is immediate - ornate detailing, a welcoming veranda, and classic proportions before giving way to light-filled, contemporary interiors. Soaring ceilings and a striking entry hallway set the tone, leading to a master suite that is a true retreat, complete with elegant bay windows, twin wardrobes, and a tiled ensuite. Two further double bedrooms, a spacious loft room, and a thoughtfully appointed family bathroom, alongside a laundry and scullery with tiled bath, provide flexibility and practicality without compromising style.
Indoor and outdoor living merge effortlessly through expansive glazing to a private, landscaped sanctuary. Sunlit tiled terraces, layered greenery and a centrepiece outdoor fireplace create a refined balance between entertaining and retreat, offering a sense of calm far removed from the everyday.
Effortless, light-filled, and perfectly proportioned, this villa represents a rare opportunity to secure an architect's own home in one of Westmere's most desirable streets. Just a short stroll to Westmere School, Lilian, Gypsy Tearooms and the Sunday Farmers Market, plus Ponsonby and the city are in easy reach, this home is the ultimate in lifestyle and convenience.
