Villa with garden and terrace Auckland (New Zealand)
Architecture transcends heritage, pushing through traditional boundaries to follow the sun in this extremely private substantial home. The home was originally designed by renowned Arts & Crafts architect Gerald Jones and more recently updated by the award-winning contemporary architect Noel Lane. In transforming the historic home, Lane rigorously considered every detail to enhance his family's enjoyment of the property. The result? Classic pre-1920s character blends with magical new architectural elements in a family sanctuary that celebrates serene Zen-inspired gardens. Throughout, sumptuous materials - like dark kauri floors and extravagantly crafted, elegant timber cabinetry - add warmth and richness, while carefully positioned windows and skylights capture light in all the right places. Thanks to Lane, the original heritage design now has a sunny north-facing focus. Ample sitting areas surround a walnut and travertine kitchen overlooking a dining area, flooded with light. A conservatory opens through hu ge glass doors to a sculptural canopy by the pool. In contrast, the generous original wood panelled formal lounge is a moody introspective showpiece of tradition. Practicalities on this level include an impressive guest bathroom. An enormous laundry doubles as a butler's pantry for entertaining. Two staircases allow an easy flow around the home. One leads to a voluminous lower level entertainment area that opens to a sculpture bay and vast outdoor terrace in front of a large lawn - the perfect party venue. There's a huge self-contained parents apartment above triple car garaging and art/wine storage. Four more sizeable bedrooms are on the upper level with three more bathrooms. With their travertine and timber details, they share a consistency of design and craftmanship. The master suite includes a spacious office or nursery and a dressing room. A timeless architectural treasure in Remuera's most prestigious address. Let its masterful story surprise and delight you on a daily basis.
