Cutting-edge chic epitomizes this 2016-built architecturally designed home. Primarily of weatherboard and honed cinder block construction the north facing residence harnesses natural elements echoing the raw beauty of the nearby Waitemata Harbour coastline. Four bedrooms across all three floors would appeal to extended families or those with boomerang offspring, a live-in parent, or for sharing your sophisticated spaces with paying guests.

A spatially liberal layout works magnificently with the ground floor constituting a colossal timber floored reception lobby. A glass framed study and eye-catching family lounge or media room with outdoor flow, flank the guest bedroom with neighbouring bathroom. The central floor continues to bedazzle with the cool white walls an elegant partner for the deep-toned flooring, plantation shutters and glass balustrading. Generous flow to decks from the living and dining area provide additional entertainment spaces with green and leafy aspect across the neighbourhood. A sensational designer Italian crafted kitchen with scullery is so on point with Miele and SMEG appliances playing nicely amidst white marble countertops, robust timber slab ledge and copious flush handle-less cabinetry. Two more bedrooms on this level share a stunning tiled bathroom, while the piece de resistance is the Blanco Carrara marble bathroom serving the penthouse master suite where a wall of glass is a bravely breathtaking inclusion.

Function level pegs with form in a home with ample storage, separate laundry and a double garage. Guests can sail up the driveway and park on the front plaza behind electric gates. Meanwhile tropical native plantings fringe the gardens where a lush sliver of lawn makes the dog feel loved. Close to Okahu Bay, Orakei Basin and the CBD, this home's the ultimate in uber cool.
