238A East Coast Road Forrest Hill, North Shore City

Situated back from the road amidst an exclusive enclave of other prestigious homes, this near new executive residence harnesses its intrinsic industrial chic to perfectly blend the inside with external areas. Highly specified materials and fittings define the spatially generous three- level interior boasting a range of entertaining opportunities for the household and their guests. Uncompromising attention to detail is found in every part of the home eminently suitable for families who will also be attracted to the coveted Westlake Boys' and Girls' College zones.

Inspired linear design deploys honed concrete in block form as well as to polished flooring in the main living areas of the 344 sqm (approx.) home. All is cozily warmed by a discreet central heating radiator system with gas fireplaces inside and out. Solid oak stair risers connect floors and glass balustrading allows rooms to lightly merge with the same treatment to a front deck enhancing the views across the shore to the central city. A sensational kitchen displays a Scandinavian influence with blond timber complementing a cool white palette to cabinetry and counters with the chef's dream dual ovens and 6 burner gas hob. Flush sill bi-folds create freedom of movement from the lower and central floor to a range of alfresco spaces following the sun wherever it is in the day. Additional benefits for family life include the ground floor rumpus/music room and a custom-built media room. All four double bedrooms share the use of three elegantly curated state-of-the-art bathrooms with the master quarters on the top floor having balcony views, bespoke timber detailing and open to its romantic and well-appointed bathroom.

A king size garage is internally accessed with more parking for guests and the boat, on a freehold 539 sqm (approx.) compound basking in all day sun. Close to beaches and a range of top schools, this rare trophy home is a 25-minute commute to downtown Auckland.
