In the heart of Takapuna, this stunning architecturally designed home by Mercer and Mercer replaces an aging family residence with a thoughtfully crafted, contemporary retreat. With only the original garage remaining, extensive groundworks have set the foundation for a home designed to embrace modern family living.
Featuring four bedrooms, three bathrooms, a study, and a rumpus room, the layout maximises both functionality and breathtaking city views. Indoor-outdoor flow is a key focus, with expansive decking leading to a beautifully designed pool by Ultimate Pools at the front, while a spa and outdoor living area create a private retreat at the back.
A standout feature of the home is its exterior, clad in thermally modified timber weatherboards by Abodo, chosen for durability and a natural beachside aesthetic. Complemented by an elegant iroko balustrade, the design seamlessly blends warmth and sophistication. This new build perfectly balances style and practicality, delivering a modern family home built for comfort, relaxation, and effortless coastal living.
