luxury house with sea view for sale North Shore, New Zealand

Opportunities of this calibre along Takapuna’s coveted Golden Mile are exceptionally rare, tightly held for generations, fiercely sought after, and increasingly difficult to secure. Positioned on approximately 1,214sq m of premium freehold waterfront land, this remarkable coastal estate offers scale, pedigree, and extraordinary future potential in one of Auckland’s most prestigious addresses. The property sits proudly on a circa 150,000 year old basalt rock foundation providing an extraordinary stable and enduring platform and not subject to coastal inundation and erosion concerns of other waterfront locations. Held and cherished by the same family for more than 60 years, this much-loved residence is being offered to the market for the first time in decades presenting a once-in-a-generation opportunity to secure a significant landholding on the seaward side of Hurstmere Road. Whether you choose to enjoy the home as it stands, create an architectural masterpiece, landbank for the future, or explore redevelopment possibilities (subject to council approval), the options here are compelling. Zoned Mixed Housing Suburban, the site offers flexibility and long-term upside in a location where true waterfront opportunities are becoming increasingly scarce. The existing residence comprises five bedrooms, three bathrooms, separate living areas, three-car lock-up garaging, and extensive off-street parking comfortably accommodating family living while future plans are considered. The setting itself is nothing short of extraordinary. Elevated and jaw-dropping wide views stretch across the Hauraki Gulf. Dolphins regularly play offshore, and visiting orcas often pass by, providing a breathtaking natural spectacle enjoyed from the privacy of your own property. This is far more than a home; it is a legacy in one of Auckland’s most tightly held coastal enclaves. A rare combination of position, scale, history, and future vision, offering the next custodian the opportunity to create something truly landmark on Takapuna’s Golden Mile. The heartfelt decision has now been made to pass 261 Hurstmere Road to its next chapter. Contact Malcolm Low at New Zealand Sotheby's International for more information.

Wake to the Hauraki Gulf, wander through your own paddocks, then follow a private track through native bush to the sandy beach below. At this remarkable Waiwera property, country and coastal living come together in a way that is increasingly difficult to find this close to Auckland. Elevated above the coastline, the estate captures spectacular views across Waiwera, Hatfields Beach, Orewa and the Hauraki Gulf. Behind the dramatic coastal outlook is a wonderfully relaxed lifestyle, with expansive land, paddocks, established grounds and exceptional privacy. There is space here for animals, gardens, family and friends, boats and all the toys that come with life by the coast. Spend mornings walking to the beach, afternoons on the water and evenings entertaining on the decks as the changing light moves across the Gulf. Built in cedar weatherboard and Wanaka schist, the substantial five-bedroom residence has a warm, timeless character. Generous living spaces connect with expansive decks and the landscape beyond, providing plenty of room for family gatherings and long summer lunches. Held by the same family for many years, the property feels wonderfully removed from the city, yet Orewa's restaurants, cafés, shopping and beaches are only minutes away. Auckland is easily accessible via the Northern Motorway, while Te Arai's world-class golf and coastline are approximately an hour north. Whether it's horses in the paddock, fishing or boating on the Gulf, walking to the beach or simply enjoying the extraordinary view, this is a property designed for living. This isn't simply a home with a sea view. It's a lifestyle that stretches from the paddocks to the beach. Private viewings by appointment.

Some homes impress the moment you walk through the door. This one makes you want to stay. Perched high above the coastline, you'll spend every day looking out across Waiwera, Orewa and the Hauraki Gulf, with Auckland's skyline sparkling in the distance. Morning coffee, sunset drinks, evenings watching the city lights come alive... it's a view you'll never get tired of. Built by Gold Award-winning Sentinel Homes just three years ago, this home has been designed so life feels easy. Everything is on one level, the living spaces are filled with natural light, and almost every room draws your eye straight back to the view. Love to entertain? You're going to love the kitchen. Gaggenau appliances, integrated refrigeration, a hidden butler's pantry and plenty of space to gather around. Whether it's a family barbecue, Christmas lunch or wine with friends, this is the kind of home people naturally gravitate towards. When summer arrives, throw open the doors and head outside. The pool, beautifully landscaped gardens and flat lawns create your own private oasis. There's room for the kids to run, friends to gather, or for you to simply sit back, relax and soak it all in. At the end of the day, the primary suite feels like your own boutique hotel. Wake up to sea views, enjoy a beautifully appointed ensuite and a generous walk-in wardrobe, then start the day with the coastline right outside your window. Need space for extended family, teenagers, guests or an extra income stream? The fully self-contained two-bedroom apartment gives you options. Completely independent with its own living area and quality Bosch kitchen, it's as versatile as it is valuable. From the cedar exterior and German-designed kitchens to ducted air conditioning and quality finishes throughout, every detail has been thoughtfully considered. It's the kind of home that's easy to live in and even easier to love. Best of all, you're only minutes from Orewa Beach, Waiwera and the motorway, so while it feels like a world away, everything you need is close by. If you've been searching for a home that offers luxury without compromising on lifestyle, this might just be the one.
