This refined and substantial family home is a rare opportunity - our owners have bought and the time for the astute purchaser who recognises and appreciates quality is now. Idyllic for the large family who enjoy sharing quality time together in a superb environment dedicated to ease and comfort. On the doorstep of Auckland Grammar, Newmarket & Mt Eden amid the serenity of a quiet street that feels like a private lane, we invite your immediate discovery.

Seamlessly blending into the richly appointed character homes of Sharpe Road, the property is only 18 years old and built to reflect the scale and craftsmanship of yesteryear. An expansive plan which spreads out in a series of living and entertaining spaces - both formal and informal, the flow here is sensational. Anchored at its heart by a soaring dual atrium and surrounding gallery on the upper floor, there is a relaxed grandeur throughout; amid classically inspired gardens that transports you to another place. Meticulous, in as-new condition and thoughtfully planned, every ease has been considered - a butler's pantry, vast utilities and storage, a study, guest suite at ground floor, and peaceful, sheltered alfresco dining areas. With 5 bedrooms in total, the master suite is the centrepiece; extra-large, with dressing room, walk in wardrobe and a luxurious ensuite, it is a real haven.

Within walking distance are the Double Grammars, Newmarket and the parks and green spaces of Mangawhau Mt Eden. The access to motorways for a short commute is incredibly convenient and transport options are available - all highlighting the enduring centrality of this most prized address.

A home with a unique feel, welcoming warmth and a seldom found position - it is certainly not to be missed. Must be sold - pre-auction offers are encouraged.
