20 Marine Parade, Mellons Bay, Manukau City, Auckland

Set on a generous 1181sqm (more or less) section, on highly desirable Marine Parade, is this rare opportunity to own an exceptional primary residence, with splendid views over Howick Beach, plus a separate, generous two-bedroom residence located above the triple car garaging, enjoying a ‘treehouse outlook’ - offering ideal extended family accommodation. Currently rented to a very long-term tenant who is happy to stay.

Falling within the catchment of the Macleans College zone, your family will benefit not only from a great education but will also love the fact that you are just metres from the beach. There are stunning walks in each direction and a selection of eclectic destinations in nearby Howick Village for that morning coffee, breakfast, cheeky afternoon drink, or even dinner - you are simply spoilt for choice.

This stand-out property offers a harmonious composition of innovative design and traditional architecture, boasting high ceilings, abundant natural light, and a relaxed, easy floorplan. A well-appointed, modern kitchen, featuring stone benchtops and a convenient central island, connects seamlessly to the oversized living areas that offer a semi-separate dining room and gorgeous sunken lounge, where walls of glass dissolve the boundary between indoors and out. An outdoor oasis beckons with its fabulous timber decks that overlook an inviting spa pool, in-ground pool, and lush gardens – creating the perfect backdrop for year-round entertainment. Enjoying total separation on the upper level, with fabulous views of the water, sits a luxurious master suite, with its own private lounge and balcony, large walk-in wardrobe, and private ensuite. Two additional, sizable bedrooms, plus a third living area/fourth bedroom, are located on the ground floor - all opening effortlessly to the outdoors. The family bathroom, powder room, and laundry are also features of the lower level.

The thoughtful design delivers two relaxed, calm, and contemporary homes that engage with the outdoors, providing immense flexibility and comfort for those in residence.

The options offered by this outstanding property are numerous, including the possibility of sub-dividing the two homes if required
