Like something out of the writing of F. Scott Fitzgerald, this 1920s 'Arts and Crafts' home has, in the course of its history, been adapted and extended to become a show-place of quality, style and refinement - whilst still retaining its exceptional character features. Rich wood panelling, architectural details, lead light windows and magnificent marble fireplaces hark back to a time of grace and grandeur. An exquisite remodelling of the rear of the home has encompassed a state of the art Poggenpohl kitchen for the culinary creative, exceptional flow from the open plan living area that glows with sunlight, out to the patio and pool area - complete with water feature and spa. Scaled for entertaining, there is also a billiards room as well as formal and informal living and dining to suit any occasion from family gatherings to at home events. Accommodation is ample, with multiple options for 4 or 5 bedrooms, and being so close to excellent private schools means this is an ideal home for families with young children or teenagers. Nothing in this home has been overlooked in terms of quality and comfort and there is a long list of behind the scenes functions that contribute to making living in this beautiful home an easy and delightful experience. In an elevated position in a coveted Remuera location, close by to transport, amenities and the CBD - you owe it to yourself and your family to view and fall in love - your future of fine living starts here in an atmosphere of unrivalled style.
