Ehara i te mea he wāhi noa iho, engari he kāinga whānau o ngā āhuatanga whakahirahira. He nui ngā āhuatanga katoa. He nui ake i te paku reka o ngā puke o Hollywood kei konei. He whare hou, onāianei te hanga, e ono ngā rūma moenga, e rima ngā rūma kaukau, 743m2 te rahi, i hoahoatia e Shanahan Architects, toa o ngā tohu, he mea hanga ki te raima mārō me te pani konutea me te weatherboard.

Mā ngā tatau kōhau e āhei ai te kīhini/wāhi kai (me te kautā huna nui) me te rūma noho me te pae inu hanga-i roto kia mahi tahi. Ka toro atu i tētahi tāpare nui kua taupokina me ngā pūwhera tāpare ki tētahi papa tarutaru astro-turf ngāwari te tiaki, he puna kaukau mutunga kore me te puna waiariki, he tākaro mātao e whakaohooho ana i te āhua noho māhorahora a Slim Aarons. He nui ngā tīwae me ngā ahi e hanga ana i tētahi āhua whakamīharo, ā, ka whakapai ake te barbecue o waho i ngā kai o te raumati. Kei tēnei papa hoki tētahi rūma pāpāho, ā, i te papa o runga, he papa nui rawa atu e tuku ana i tētahi atu mokomoko nohoanga.

He wehe tino pai ngā rūma moenga i ia papa, he tirohanga ātaahua tō ngā rūma moenga me ngā rūma kaukau nui e whā ngā rūma kaukau matua ataahua.

124 Arney Road, Remuera, Auckland City, Auckland Hollywood glamour with 270-degree views

Not just a grand address, but a family home of epic proportions. Everything is on a large scale. There’s more than a taste of Hollywood Hills here. The impressive six-bedroom, five-bathroom 743m2 (more or less) contemporary residence designed by award-winning Shanahan Architects is built of solid concrete with zinc and weatherboard cladding. While it is incredibly private on an elevated, gated 1528m2 (more or less) property, sun streams inside all-day through enormous windows that catch wraparound views to the Sky Tower and city skyline.

Three levels connect via a curvaceous floating staircase from the entry where a gym and six car garaging await – a treat for classic car collectors. Massive adjoining spaces on the first floor invite relaxed living and entertaining, indoors and out. Cavity doors allow the kitchen/dining area (with huge hidden scullery) and the lounge with built-in cocktail bar to work as one. Extending across a vast covered terrace with ceiling heaters to an easy-care astro-turf lawn, infinity pool and spa, this cool playground evokes a laid-back Slim Aarons vibe. High studs and fireplaces create a compelling mood and a built-in outdoor barbecue enhances summer dining. There’s a media room on this level and upstairs, a super-sized landing offers another lounge escape.

Well-separated across each level, bedrooms enjoy views and generous bathrooms include four beautiful ensuites. On its own along the north-east aspect the enormous master suite is a spa-like sanctuary with open bathroom and a room-sized dressing room.

There is space to add a lift between floors and potential to convert a large natural bush area into a dream garden.

Experience pure indulgence in a big, bold, bullet-proof home in one of Remuera’s most prestigious Double Grammar Zone addresses, walking distance to Newmarket and Parnell, the waterfront, Bloodworth Park playing fields and handy to all the top private schools.
