Fall asleep to the sound of nature and wake to birdsong you may think you are in the tranquility of the Waitakere's. Instead you are in the heart of the northern slopes of Remuera. Discovering this unique property maybe the best thing you ever do for your family and the separation it allows as they grow up will give you endless satisfaction that you made the right decision.

Beyond the layout, designed to connect the house to the exceptional array of native bush and the swimming pool, there are many artistic design features to consider. These create focal points throughout the house, including a polished corten steel wall and a sliced granite ensuite shower that induces feelings of showering in a rain forest.

The voluminous kitchen with three large benches and a mix of Gaggenau and Scholtes appliances will inspire chefs to create wonderful dishes. Flow to the large deck and pool is seamless as it the connection to the dining room and lounge.

Five bedrooms and a study are spread out over the three floors and all are exceptionally large. Some have views of the pool and bush, another has its own deck and spa, yet another is on its own level. The master suite is simply idyllic.

A staircase from the pool winds down into an enchanted wood with a stream at the bottom - what could be more romantic?

With plenty of parking, double grammar zone and private schools close by, this property has all the earthy aspects of living out of Auckland and yet is central to everything.
