46 Tarawera Terrace, St Heliers, Auckland City, Auckland

This stunning residence occupies a fantastic location upon a well-known ridge off Long Drive at 46 Tarawera Terrace, Saint Heliers.

The upper story offers particularly spectacular evening vistas.

Unique in its design, the house is perched upon a ridge while simultaneously overlooking its own gentle forest with private walking tracks and native birds.

Essentially, this home offers a trifecta of breathtaking views: sea, city, and forest.

Epitomizing luxury, the house features 5 bedrooms, 6 bathrooms, a gym, a swimming pool, a spa pool, 2 outdoor under-cover BBQ areas, a secret panic room, a gentlemen's room, garaging for 5-7 cars (potentially even 8), a full designer dry kitchen, and a full designer wet kitchen/scullery. No detail has been overlooked; the house features high-quality tapware and showerware by Greens, a renowned New Zealand luxury supplier, along with wool carpeting and imported oak flooring. Perfect for entertaining, the house exudes both opulence and practicality. Supermarkets like PaknSave and New World are conveniently close by, and the property is within a 10-minute drive of Remuera's private schools. Additionally, Madills Farm Park and the beach are just a short walk away.

The architectural and design elements of this house are a testament to meticulous planning and refinement. Months of work were poured into creating the ultimate masterpiece.
