354 Whitford Road Whitford, Manukau City

Every so often, a property comes along that captures the heart from the very first moment. Brought to life through a meticulous renovation, this is a home where architecture, setting, and lifestyle are perfectly aligned. Surrounded by sweeping park-like grounds and an orchard of fruit trees, this residence tells a story of love and vision - framed by panoramic vistas stretching from the Sky Tower to Rangitoto and Waiheke, and as far as the Coromandel.

From the moment you arrive, the sense of scale is undeniable. Engineered oak floors flow through light filled living spaces, while expansive glass draws the landscape in, blurring the line between indoors and out. Designed for effortless entertaining, the open plan kitchen, dining and living spaces unfold seamlessly to a louvre covered patio, an idyllic setting for summer gatherings. Retreat to the spa for quiet moments beneath the stars admiring the city lights, while children will love creating their own adventures in the treehouse or exploring the grounds.

Accommodation is generous and versatile. Six bedrooms include a sumptuous master retreat with walk-in wardrobe and private ensuite, while the lower level transforms into an entertainer's dream, with a rumpus room, bar and pool table creating the ultimate space for gatherings.

Every detail has been considered: double glazing for year-round comfort, multiple outdoor entertaining zones, and a seamless blend of contemporary style with natural surroundings. Practicality is equally uncompromised with double internal access garaging, abundant off-street parking, and a storage shed that lends itself to storage, a hobby space or teenage retreat, all while allowing you to live off the land with your own lush vegetable garden.

Occupying an expansive 4,393 square metre (mol) freehold site, the property offers the tranquillity of countryside living with the convenience of a coveted location. Just minutes from Meadowlands Shopping Centre, Botany Town Centre and Howick Village, you are spoilt for choice with an array of shops, cafes and restaurants. Quality school zones include Shelly Park School, Somerville Intermediate, Botany Downs Secondary College and Howick College.

For the current owners, life here has been a collection of "pinch-yourself moments". Contact Kylie and Vicky to arrange your viewing and experience first-hand the Whitford lifestyle that makes every day feel a little extraordinary.
