15 Ranui Road, Remuera, Auckland, 1050, New Zealand

A boldly iconic home, this 1920s Arts and Crafts residence has been sympathetically upgraded in a sensational O’Donnell Architects makeover inspiring the House of Steel and Light’ moniker and accolades as a 2013 Auckland Architecture Awards winner.

Its Double Grammar Zone heartland Remuera location and intrinsic character creates a unique property for discerning family buyers. The ground floor consists of a series of interconnected light-filled spaces with bespoke Crittall Arnold steel-framed windows and doors creating pavilion-style living. The home offers three bedrooms, with two studies able to be used as extra bedrooms, along with two beautifully tiled bathrooms.

Extensive and expansive living areas look out to the elegantly landscaped gardens and in-ground swimming pool, enormous scope to entertain large gatherings.

The traditional street frontage belies the exciting addition beyond and displays an inviting air with its classically styled front garden. Space is available for guest parking outside, in addition to a triple car garage. This special home is within an easy reach of Saint Kentigern Girls’ School, Remuera Village and the main arterial routes for commuting to the city.
