The current owners undertook the major transformation project in conjunction with renowned interior designer Paul Izzard, the mastermind behind many of New Zealand's most prestigious restaurants and boutiques. Together they have created a magnificent living environment designed to surprise and delight at every turn, with a masterfully curated palette of interior finishes, playful colour and materials sourced from around the globe and all designed to ignite the senses.

The 2022 Master Builders Gold Award recipient not only elegantly balances classic period architecture with the very best in contemporary design and technology, it unfolds to offer an abundance of luxury living space perfectly proportioned for family relaxing and entertaining.

The impressive gallery-style entrance hall and vast formal lounge flow into the extraordinary chef's kitchen, which boasts an enormous marble island, both gas and induction cooking, steam and convection ovens, and three separate pantries neatly housing everything you need within reach, but tidily out of sight.

This area opens out through banks of bi-folds to the north-facing lawns with putting green and steps leading to the elevated swimming pool complex which is positioned to be flooded with light and sun, and the pool bar is fully set up for entertaining.

The six bedrooms and additional living and working spaces are offered across a series of wings that cater to long-term guests as well as providing a variety of options as your family grows. The opulent master is adorned with gold accents, two custom-designed dressing rooms and a luxurious ensuite.

The grounds are landscaped into a series of outdoor rooms - from the structed formal gardens out front, lush green plantings and edibles along the side and landscaped lawns to the north.

There is plenty of storage space throughout the home and the extra-large and well-appointed garage offers space for cars as well as a home-gym and easy access to skis, bikes and beach toys, and attic access to even more.

This home offers the ultimate family life in a wonderful welcoming community, with Stanley Bay primary school just a few doors away and it is an easy stroll to nearby beaches and historical Devonport village, with Auckland City just a 10 minute ferry trip for work or play.
