Sun, cedar and seaviews: builder's own masterpiece

DEADLINE SALE BROUGHT FORWARD to 4pm, Monday 3rd November 2025

With panoramic views stretching across the Hauraki Gulf to Tiri Channel and Great Barrier Island, this remarkable cedar residence captures the essence of relaxed coastal living with a level of workmanship rarely seen today.
Ideally positioned on the brow of the rise, this home has been admired by locals for decades. One of two iconic homes built by a master craftsman - and later chosen by another builder for its exceptional detail - this property tells a story of enduring quality.
The decor embraces natural light, warmth and texture, from its vaulted timber ceilings to the slate entrance, garaging and workshop below, in materials that elite homes are again sourcing for their designer interiors.
Upstairs, capacious open-plan living and dining spaces frame those magnificent sea views, through huge picture windows, and open to a sheltered, north-facing sundeck - the perfect spot for a morning coffee or a quiet moment above the bay. The timber-lined, cathedral ceilings form an exquisite canopy over the enduring vintage luxury Axminster carpets, adding space and height to the upper level.
The ground floor provides four well-proportioned bedrooms, including a versatile east-facing room, that greets the sunrise, captures sea glimpses through to the Gulf, and could double as a downstairs lounge. The light-filled master with ensuite, opens to the sundeck and private, sun-soaked garden, while the expansive entertaining deck provides the ideal hub for alfresco gatherings, children's play dates, and easy outdoor living.
The property sits on a level half share of 1,277sqm, designed for privacy and sunshine, just across the road from the "James Way" walkway leading to Waiake Beach, reserve and eatery - where morning swims and coffee or breakfast become part of everyday life.
Torbay School is just moments up the road, with Northcross and Long Bay College nearby, boasting the many accolades of sought-after educational facilities.
A short drive takes you to the Torbay or Long Bay village cafe culture, leading to Auckland's Long Bay Regional Park for outdoor recreation and rambling open spaces.
Transport routes connect easily to the wider North Shore with a bus stop just metres away.
Perfect for families, up-sizers, professionals, or discerning investors, this home offers space, craftsmanship and coastal enjoyment - all in one of Torbay's most sought-after seaside pockets.
