Dream Family Sanctuary with Panoramic Views

Stylish, immaculate and showcasing views that must be experienced to be believed, this luxury home is a dream for busy families who love to entertain.

The deceptively spacious, two-level cedar and weatherboard residence has been crafted to take full advantage of sensational vistas across land, sea and sky. It's been coveted by the current family for six years and they have enhanced the already high-spec build with a series of chic contemporary features that take it to the next level.

Upstairs is primarily dedicated to living, dining and cooking, with large picture windows framing the cinematic vistas from every angle. The well-equipped chef's kitchen has a large island, scullery and double fridge with ice maker. It flows out to the expansive deck that becomes another room in summer, thanks to the electric louvres with rain sensors. The ever-changing outlook encompasses the Hauraki Gulf, Rangitoto and the full city skyline.

Also on this level are separate lounge, powder room and fifth bedroom/home office/ kids playroom. Four bedrooms on the ground floor are serviced by three bathrooms, with a choice of two restful master suites.

As expected with a modern build of this calibre, features include great storage throughout, three heat pumps, double glazing, a sound system and security system.

The 452sqm (more or less) freehold site enjoys enviable privacy, tucked in a peaceful pocket. Landscaped grounds are incredibly easy care and there is a private putting green around the back of the property. Along with the carpeted internal double garage, there is secure parking behind an electric gate for another four vehicles, or a boat and caravan.

Parr Terrace is a quiet, well-connected neighbourhood, close to transport, Milford shops and the beach. It is also zone for Campbells Bay Primary, Murrays Bay Intermediate and Westlake Girls and Boys High Schools.
