Homes of this timeless distinction rarely surface for sale. The magnificence of this 1,184m2 more or less, property is a testament to the owner’s love and devotion to their family home for the past 30 years. With Little Rangitoto Reserve below, this home faces due north on the highest crest of Ventnor, beholding Auckland's vast sea and landscape views. As one of the original houses of Ventnor Road, its gracious character dates to the early 1920s. Since then, the spaces have been sympathetically altered and updated to take advantage of the aspect and suit modern family living. Rewired, replumbed, relined, insulated and reroofed in the 1995 restoration, the home has been beautifully preserved, including many of the period details, such as the timber floors, coffered ceilings, and finer embellishments. A humbling sense of awe awaits behind the front entrance. The internal footprint is astoundingly large, providing inter-connected formal and casual rooms and a modern kitchen, all ideal for hosting big or small occasions. The family living room and dining invite you to experience dazzling views from an alfresco aspect. From the extensive entertainer's deck, you'll look out above rooftops to Rangitoto Island, the harbour waters, Devonport's Mt Victoria and North Head, and the city skyline. To the East is Mt Wellington and the Coromandel Ranges. Accommodating the family are four bathrooms and four bedrooms, including the loft with an ensuite and the master suite featuring an ensuite. The loft is privately set above the oversized double garage/workshop and shares in those stunning vistas, offering the perfect teenager or guest retreat. Comfort is promised with underfloor gas heating and the Jet Master woodfire. There is a second fireplace in the upstairs library. A further double garage adds the ability to store a boat. Established gardens crown this home in tranquil privacy and are inspiring to explore. The lifestyle is quintessentially perfect, situated near the Upland Village cafes and boutique stores and Orakei Basin, with easy access to Remuera Village, the CBD and excellent private and public education. Don't miss this remarkable opportunity. Call Leila and David today.
