Grand Masonry Home - Seawardside Takapuna
1 ARTHUR CRESCENT, HAURAKI
Located in a cul-de-sac just off Clifton Road, 1 Arthur is moments from the golden sands of Takapuna Beach. This solid masonry (concrete block) home offers the perfect blend of luxury, scale, and low-maintenance coastal family living. Positioned on an elevated 693m² site, it enjoys a sunny northwesterly aspect with superb privacy.
The home offers an impressive 438m² of internal living, offering five bedrooms plus an office and three separate living areas. The layout offers great space with high-end finishes and nothing to do other than move in and start living. Enter through a grand foyer with marble tiles and a double-height ceiling that opens to the second level, setting the tone for the rest of the home. The expansive open-plan living and kitchen area is the heart of the home. The kitchen features a striking marble island bench with dark cabinetry, complete with Miele appliances, a wine fridge, and a coffee station. Solid maple timber flooring adds warmth throughout the space and a gas fireplace and ducted air-conditioning system ensure comfort year-round.
Bi-fold doors open to a covered louvre tec outdoor entertainment area, with an outdoor gas fire, and views of the sun-drenched heated swimming pool. The main level also features a separate dining room opening to a private garden, plus a cosy TV room, guest toilet and separate laundry.
A separate bedroom wing offers three double bedrooms, a shared bathroom, and a living / break out space ideal for teenagers to relax. Complete with its own heat pump, this wing offers fantastic privacy and excellent separation from the main living areas.
On the upper level, an impressive master suite provides a private retreat with a luxurious new walk-in wardrobe and dressing room. The lavish ensuite features a freestanding bath, beautiful marble tiles, and a vanity top. The space also enjoys a nice, elevated outlook and views towards Takapuna Beach from a private balcony. Also on the upper level is a fifth bedroom and a large office or possible sixth bedroom, with a separate bathroom to service these rooms.
The basement level offers a large three-car garage, a steam sauna, and excellent storage space. The property also provides off-street parking for multiple vehicles, with automated gates ensuring privacy and security.

Licensed Real Estate Salesperson (REAA 2008), Member of the REINZ
Andrew specialises in marketing homes on the Golden Mile between Milford and Takapuna and around the waterfront - both the sea and Lake Pupuke. He sees these areas as some of the finest real estate in the country, with always a strong demand for properties right across the price range.
In the last six consecutive calendar years, Andrew has sold over $100 million each year, at an average of $4,530,000 - one of the highest residentially in the Country. He holds the highest ever recorded sales in both Milford and Takapuna as well as Campbells Bay Beach, Campbells Bay Clifftop and Stanley Point (for a non-waterfront property). Andrew seldom accepts listings outside his speciality area and only does so if he genuinely believes he's the best person for the job.
Due to the number of clients who request confidentiality, he does a significant amount of business ‘off the market’. There have been many homes he has sold without the neighbours being aware. At the top end, there are large differences in where buyers see the value of property, he says, so he prefers to negotiate each transaction face to face, rather than selling by auction where there are risks when fewer people are in a cash unconditional position. Whilst he is renowned for dealing with higher-value properties, Andrew has also carved a niche within the seaward side streets in and around Milford and Takapuna, especially with the lock-up and leave market. He sees a strong correlation between larger homes and the downsizer market assisting those vendors with their next purchase.
Andrew lives in Audrey Road with his wife Sarah and two children, Ruby and Jack, and additionally has substantial commercial and residential holdings in the area, so he lives, breathes and believes in the core areas in which he sells.
If you are thinking of selling your home please contact Andrew for a confidential discussion.
