1/8 Maunganui Road #1, Auckland, New Zealand being shown by Barfoot & Thompson with MLS # 923536

Purposefully positioned in one of the North Shore’s most exclusive coastal pockets, this award-winning Malcolm Walker residence is more than a home, it’s a piece of New Zealand architectural history. Designed in 1988 and celebrated for its thoughtful balance of form, function and flow, this compelling property has never been to market. With its voluminous 300m2 floor area framed with picturesque private access to the sandy beach of Chelsea Bay, this is an elegant yet robust property that delivers accommodation with aplomb! Soaring curvaceous ceiling heights with walls of glass on every aspect and bespoke windows at every level, beautifully crafted to ensure that the vivid blue vista of the Waitemata Harbour and wellbeing of the north sun is transported through the majesty and protection of the wraparound landscaped gardens. Often overlooked or understated, the grandiose primary bedroom with its sweeping views and indulgent private lounge is accompanied by an enviable dressing room and ensuite. This room alone defines the quality and integrity of this abode. Five bedrooms, three bathrooms and multiple living and dining areas inside and outside, invite both connection and retreat. Formal dining and family zones are anchored by not one but two wood-burning fireplaces, a rare touch of warmth and intimacy in a home of such scale. And the proud curated centrepiece, a custom-made kitchen showcasing continuous tactile marble, an exceptionally functional space that seamlessly blends performance with aesthetics; and has the perfect vantage point to maintain a watchful eye on the family playing in both the interior and exterior spaces. Outside, a sculptural clock and fully planted landscaped garden support the tone of elegance, low-maintenance and uniqueness. A private patio provides the perfect place to gather and observe the beguiling bird and plant life with additional sun decks and a capacious covered lower deck ensure that there are places to entertain and enjoy the serenity and views in all weathers. While steps away, a sandy beach offers the ultimate connection to nature, making this a property as much about experience as about architecture. This is a home for those who value more than walls and rooflines, it’s a celebration of light, proportion and setting, right on the water’s edge. With a legacy that cannot be replicated, 8 Maunganui Road is a once in a lifetime opportunity to purchase a property for life.
