The Entertainer

Life here, perched so high on Remuera's coveted northern ridgeline, is as much about calm and serenity as it is about the breathtaking panoramic Harbour and Sky Tower views.

Available for the first time in 26 years, and bathed in northerly sun, all the hard work has been done to renovate and modernise this surprisingly spacious 1920s home. From the moment you step inside you'll instantly know this home is perfect for multi-generational families who love to entertain.

The social hub of the home is a sensational Natalie Du Bois designer kitchen with quality stone benchtops and high-end appliances. From here, not only can you cook up a storm, you can actually see storms as they pass over North Head, the City, and beyond. At night, relaxing in front of the fire or out on the deck is pure magic as you marvel at the big sky above, and the dazzling lights below.

Come rain or shine, head to the backyard and dine al-fresco with friends and family under the heated and covered BBQ pavilion. Here there's plenty of space for kids and pets to run and play to their hearts' content. The lower entry level is tucked away and virtually self-contained. Ideal for teens and guests, it features a huge rumpus room, wine cellar, bedroom, bathroom and a big double garage. There's no shortage of storage in this substantial home.

The current owners have loved living and entertaining here, but it's time to downsize and hand over the keys to the next lucky family.
