Every home has a beginning.

This one began as a classic weatherboard villa on Bell Road, with high ceilings and good bones already in place. But it was clear early on that the home had the potential to become something more.

That transformation was led by architect Keshaw McArthur, with a focus on scale, flow, and how the home sits on the site. Completed in 2019, the redesign reshaped the home to make the most of its position, opening living spaces to light and a wide valley outlook toward Mt Hobson - an active view that brings a sense of life and movement beyond the home.

Set well back from the road, the house enjoys a strong sense of privacy and is arranged in practical, easy-to-live-in zones. The home is predominantly single level, with the main living areas and bedrooms all on one floor. A lower-level space, including a spacious second living area, bathroom and bedroom with its own entrance, adds flexibility for guests, work, or a private retreat.

At the centre of the home, the kitchen is both refined and highly functional, with integrated appliances, generous storage, and a large scullery with a built-in study nook supporting everyday living.

Outside, there are multiple areas to enjoy. A lawn and outdoor fireplace create relaxed settings for entertaining or quiet evenings, while an additional patio with adjustable louvres offers flexibility for all seasons. The heated swimming pool and spa are positioned to feel private and well connected to the house.

Throughout the home, every detail has been carefully considered and finished to a high standard, balancing quality and durability with the ease required for family living. Featured by The Local Project and HERE magazine, this home has earned the attention of the design world - and now, the opportunity is yours.

A double garage and ample off-street parking complete the offering.

With our owners now based outside Auckland and committed to their next steps, Valley House is offered for genuine sale on or before the auction date.
