Positioned on one of Remuera’s most tightly held Northern Slopes streets, this much-loved family home combines timeless character, architectural design and panoramic views across the Hauraki Gulf to Rangitoto Island.

Carefully improved by its present owners over more than three decades, the early-1900s weatherboard residence has been thoughtfully extended with the involvement of respected Auckland architect Malcolm Walker and now balances original charm with the practical comforts expected for modern family living.

At the centre of the home, Walker’s architect-designed extension creates a striking open-plan living area with soaring ceilings and extensive glazing framing the spectacular outlook.

The multiple living and dining areas provide flexibility for both entertaining and everyday family life, with doors opening to a substantial north-facing deck, perfectly positioned to take in the uninterrupted outlook across the valley and out to the Gulf.

Accommodation is spread across two levels, offering flexibility for growing families, guests, teenagers or those working from home. The main level includes two generous bedrooms, a family bathroom, and a powder room.

Downstairs, a third bedroom, second bathroom, office, separate laundry, and workshop provide further options depending on lifestyle needs. The extensive garaging for four vehicles can also be accessed from this level.

Set on 668sqm of freehold land within the Double Grammar Zone, and close to Remuera Village, Newmarket and leading private schools, this is a rare opportunity to secure a blue-chip family holding in one of Auckland’s most established locations.
