Mission Bay - Sublime Beach Lifestyle

Description

In all of Auckland, even New Zealand, this has to be one of the most beautiful places to live. Elevated on the seaward side in the most prestigious, quiet part of Selwyn Avenue, the thoughtfully updated 1930s residence looks north, catching incredible sunsets and glorious beach and harbour views.

Built of solid masonry and weatherboard with a tiled roof, it showcases elegant traditional character with generous proportions, ornate plaster ceiling cornices and richly patinaed matai floors. Yet the classic home also benefits from having been superbly modernised with a fluid floorplan that caters exceptionally well for family living and entertaining.

Off the large kitchen, a huge open living space pushes out into a gorgeous private garden through 3 sets of doors to a full width loggia and expansive decking. Especially in summer, sun-soaked barbecue and alfresco dining options are fantastic.

Upstairs, a second huge lounge, with built-in bar, adds another choice, opening to a balcony inviting you to appreciate the stunning view across the bay, to Bastion Point and over the harbour to North Head.

The 4 large bedrooms provide excellent separation and masses of storage. Everyone can spread out enjoying their own space. On the upper floor, 3 bedrooms include 2 large suites (with 2 en suites and a walk-in closet) plus a family bathroom. On its own at the top, the master suite looks through a juliette balcony that frames sweeping wraparound harbour views to Rangitoto Island. In addition to the office beside the entry to double garaging, it has a study, en suite and walk-in closet.

A short stroll down to Mission Bay's myriad cafes, restaurants and the beach - elevate your beach life to another level. Purchase now and you know, you have truly arrived.
