A Brilliant Way to Live
Behind its classic façade, the home unfolds into a series of beautifully proportioned, light-filled spaces. High ceilings retain the villa’s sense of character, while the architectural redesign introduces a layout that feels calm, connected and remarkably easy to live in.
What distinguishes this home from many villas in the Avenues is the separation and privacy between its bedrooms and living areas. Children of different ages, blended families, guests and those working from home can all have space of their own, without losing the warmth of coming together. It is a genuinely intelligent floor plan that understands how families live today.
The home
Positioned on the sought-after sunny side of the street, the main living spaces extend effortlessly to a sheltered deck, in-ground swimming pool and private, low-maintenance outdoor setting. Peaceful and protected, it is an inviting place to entertain, unwind and enjoy long Auckland summers.
The generous bedrooms feature built-in wardrobes, excellent natural light and quiet outlooks. Privately positioned, the main suite feels like a retreat of its own, complete with a well-appointed ensuite and a restful sense of separation. A beautifully finished family bathroom and additional facilities ensure the home works just as well during the morning rush as it does when entertaining.
Positioned at the quiet, poised end of John Street, the home is just steps from Jervois Road, with its excellent cafés, beautiful shops, some of the neighbourhood’s best dining and nearby green spaces.
A sophisticated architectural home with character, privacy and space for everyone, however your family comes together.
A Brilliant Way to Live.
