Not only is this home best-addressed in arguably one of Remuera's most sought-after northern slopes locations, but it is also tucked quietly away from the road, beautifully elevated with Sky Tower vistas, and oriented north-west to capture the sun all day. What lies beyond the unassuming entrance is a spacious sanctuary with a genuine sense of privacy. You can finally shut the world out and breathe.

With a distinctly Tuscan look and feel, plus an effortless connection to multiple paved outdoor zones, dining alfresco will become your new way of life. The lush green lawns and abundant gardens are a welcome bonus too - typically not found in surrounding newer homes on more compact sections.

Inside, the high ceilings, wide staircases, and multiple living areas prove that much thought went into the original Patterson design. On the ground level, a separate formal living area doubles as a fabulous office or even a fourth bedroom if you need it.

Just 20 minutes walk from the Orakei Bay Village & Train Station, the Orakei Basin walk is even closer. Available for the first time since built new by the current owner in 1998, there is excellent scope to add value to this entry-level opportunity.
