2/30A Maungarei Road, Remuera, Auckland City, Auckland

If you're dreaming of family life in a meticulously-designed home, set back from the bustle of city living - yet still in one of Auckland's most desirable central suburbs - then 2/30A Maungarei Rd should be top of your wish-list.

This architectural home has been the pride and joy for its present owners, who for the past 15 years have cherished its open-plan flow from the light-filled entranceway, stepping down into the modern entertainer's kitchen / dining area, and through to the generous living room with stylish curved ceiling that enhances a sense of space and calm.

While the kitchen forms the heart of the home, the living room is your sanctuary, whatever the season. In the winter, the woodburner heater exudes a cosy warmth; in the summer, the double doors are thrown open to the sun-drenched deck, tucked away in an idyllic bush-like setting where family and friends can escape the stresses of busy lives.

Three generous bedrooms, plus garage converted into a children's den or work-from-home space, give multiple living options for a growing family. You'll also love being located off the main road, with the amenities of Remuera and Lunn Ave close by, as well as easy access to main transport links.

This is a home where relaxation and peace of mind are the priority, as you savour living in this hidden-away pocket of urban paradise.
