Ron Sang classic on Parnell's edge

For enthusiasts ready and willing to spend their days living in an awe-inspiring environment, the Sang House awaits you. It's hard to fathom that a large family home with such a strong pedigree is actually for sale. Luckily for you, it is.

Like every profession, architecture has its fair share of outstanding practitioners. In New Zealand Ron Sang was one of them - internationally recognised as a master of his art.

With more surprises than can be articulated in a real estate advertisement, a quick walk-through is not enough here. Just like when you explore artworks in a quiet gallery, most will want to spend a few hours here - observing and pondering the wonder of it all.

Featuring the very best of mid-century modernism, sublime privacy, elevation, location, light, zen-like spaces that expand and compress, multi-generational flexibility, durability, desirability, a bubble chair ... and much more.

Three years after Ron created this sanctuary for his own family, he went on to design the famous Brake House in Titirangi, for which he won the NZIA Enduring Award. Some refer to this special place as the “Remuera” Brake House.

This is a home where you can stand out, or disappear, depending on how you feel. Remarkably, guardianship of the architect's legacy, and the freedom of choice it offers, is yours for the taking.
