32 Manhattan Rise, Orewa, Rodney District, Auckland

This solid masonry masterpiece has been designed to showcase dazzling, 180-degree views over Orewa Beach and Estuary. It was built for the current owners and celebrates a grandstand position on one of Orewa’s most sought-after streets.

Clever and considered contemporary design creates an equally elegant and functional living environment and interiors are presented to perfection. Spectacular views are on full display in the open-plan chef’s kitchen, dining and living space upstairs. Large picture windows and two sets of stacking glass doors frame cinematic vistas of Orewa Beach, the peninsula, the Hauraki Gulf and Estuary. The front deck out here is the perfect spot to enjoy a morning coffee while taking in the vista.

The private master suite has its own custom walk-in wardrobe and ensuite, while the remaining three bedrooms – or two plus second lounge/media room – are serviced by the family bathroom with freestanding bath.

Another generous north-facing deck is protected via a Louvretec canopy for all season entertaining and steps down to a private patio. There is plenty of space for a pool out here, should the new owner so wish.

Tucked away beneath the house, the man cave is spacious and lined and offers plenty of space for storage and tinkering, as well as having a beer and playing darts with mates.

Now mature grounds have been exquisitely landscaped and incorporate sweeping lawns, feature plantings and raised vegetable gardens.

Along with the carpeted internal garage with workshop space, there is plenty of extra off-street parking available on the driveway, perfect for your boat or camper van.

Orewa School is just across the street behind the property and the beach and township are a five minute drive from home.
