12 Macpherson Street, Meadowbank, Auckland City

A rare and remarkable offering in this tightly held enclave, this expansive 994sqm (approx.) waterfront property boasts riparian rights, its own jetty, and Resource Consent for three luxury dwellings (see images 6-8). Nestled in a peaceful valley bordering a tributary of the Orakei Basin, this is a unique opportunity for families, developers, and investors alike.

The existing 208sqm (approx.) 1961-built residence enjoys a lush, botanical outlook and blends timeless character with updated comfort. Polished native timber floors feature throughout the open-plan living, where a lounge with fireplace and adjoining dining area flow seamlessly to a large, pergola-covered entertaining terrace. The crisp white kitchen includes ample storage, gas cooking, and stainless-steel finishes.

Upstairs are three double bedrooms-each with built-in wardrobes-serviced by a stylish bathroom with stone vanity, bathtub, and shower. Downstairs, two more bedrooms (one with a walk-in robe), a home office, and a semi-ensuite bathroom offer flexibility for extended family or guests. An internal-access double garage includes laundry and storage, with ample forecourt parking.

For generations, families have launched kayaks and dinghies from the bottom of the garden. Now it's ready for its next chapter-whether as a dream family compound or a prestigious development. Enjoy proximity to Bonnie Brae Reserve, Waiatarua Reserve walkway, Meadowbank School, and Meadowbank Shopping Centre. City-bound public transport is also within easy reach.
