Iconic Officers' Home, 1350m2 Absolute Waterfront.

FOR SALE BY AUCTION - IN ROOMS ON THURSDAY 24th OF JUNE @ 6:30PM (unless sold prior)

Arguably the best of the best, this beautifully restored heritage home nestled on the waterfront of Catalina Bay offers a reminder of a more gentle age of huge lawns and air force ranking. A tasteful calibration of old and new that has harmoniously come together to offer something truly exceptional. 

Situated on the most significant single residential section (1350 sqm FREEHOLD) in Hobsonville Point, with a north facing aspect and located just above (with private access to) Fabric Cafe Bistro, Little Creatures craft brewery, the Farmers Market, Coastal Walkway and Ferry to Aucklands CBD.

Magnificent pohutukawa trees frame one of the most romantic harbour views in Auckland, complemented by established hedges and landscaped plantings that border the property, making this sprawling estate a sanctuary for families and pets to explore and enjoy. 

The preservation of this iconic heritage home recognises the richness of the site's history, with leadlight windows, matai timber floors, detailed ceilings, central wood fireplace and large covered entry porch all retained. 

The designer kitchen is an entertainer's dream, with sprawling caesarstone benchtops, breakfast bar and high end fixtures & fittings.

The custom timber joinery seamlessly allows the interior rooms to spill effortlessly onto a large entertaining deck with louvred pergola, which wraps the entire northern and eastern side of the home. 

Four generous bedrooms occupy the top floor which have been updated with a true designer's eye. An enormous attic space provides further opportunity for development.

This is a move-in and fall in love property, or if you want to take it further, there are previously approved plans that allow a significant two-storey extension to the rear of the home. Furthermore, you might follow the neighbours lead and add a pool area overlooking the waters edge.

A must see and secure property if you are looking to live in one of Auckland's most iconic waterfront homes.  Property ID: #MJ47842
