37 Island View Road, Karaka, Franklin, Auckland

Making its debut after four decades as a family home, a rare and prestigious opportunity awaits, to acquire the 1.6-hectare Karaka Waterfront Estate, Tonada Park.

Conceptualised and constructed by its architect-owner, the home draws inspiration from the earlier espaliered pear orchards on the grounds, transforming this vision into a meticulously designed grand estate.

Blending modern and postmodern influences, the home welcomes you through a grand double-height entryway, illuminated by roof glazing. Striking metallic columns draw the eye upward to the floating balcony, further accentuating the verticality of the 3 storey space. At the heart of the home, an internal pool with floor-to-ceiling glass panels seamlessly connecting the indoors to the garden terrace, creating the ultimate luxurious atmosphere perfect for entertaining guests and family.

The expansive ground floor includes both formal and informal living rooms, multiple dining areas-ranging from a formal dining room to a garden-view and casual dining. For lovers of art and literature, a music lounge and library offer an intimate space, leading into the guest wing which features two large bedrooms, both with en-suites and floor-to-ceiling windows.

The first floor is home to both master bedrooms complete with an en-suite and walk-in wardrobe. From a study area an elegant iron staircase spirals up to the top level, which offers a private retreat complete with a balcony-the perfect hideaway within this unprecedented estate.

The property features an additional separate utility building that includes office space presenting excellent home and income potential. Nestled on residential Large Lot Zoning within Hingaia 3 precinct, the property offers significant development potential to have multiple net site areas of approx. 2500m2 making this premium Karaka real estate, an unmissable opportunity.
