75 Woodhill Park Road, Waimauku, Rodney, Auckland, 0883, New Zealand
Parisian-inspired beauty and timeless finishes meets solid (masonry), enduring construction to create a home of international standards.
Situated at the end of a cul de sac and tucked away behind a private and gated entry on Waimauku’s most serene and desirable street is a property deserving of a spot in Architectural Digest. As you enter the gates and drive under the cover of sculpted magnolia trees, the home reveals its elegant facade.
The open plan kitchen, living and dining area has been detailed to the finest of standards and enhanced by double height ceilings and wall to wall bifold doors, seamless views of the pool, lush gardens, and an expansive patio – ideal for entertaining or simply soaking up the serenity.
The first of two kitchens is a true showstopper, draped in Caesarstone and fitted with premium European appliances, including an integrated Liebherr fridge and freezer recessed seamlessly into the concrete wall. The second kitchen is fully equipped – perfect for private catering, large gatherings, or keeping things behind the scenes when entertaining.
And when it’s time to relax, there are spaces for every mood. The media room is perfect for day to day living and entertaining, while the martini room, my favourite – anchored by a custom-built bar and gas fireplace – offers a more intimate, sophisticated retreat.
The master suite is a sanctuary, on par with the world’s finest hotels. Grand in size and perfectly positioned for light and privacy, it features a walk-in wardrobe, a beauty desk, and an ensuite that’s pure indulgence – double shower, a feature bath, and doors that open onto a private courtyard.
The main home also includes three additional bedrooms and three bathrooms, but the separate apartment above the garage is a standout feature. It’s ideal for extended family, teenagers, or an au pair, complete with its own living area, kitchenette, and bathroom – all overlooking the beautifully established grounds.
The grounds are nothing short of extraordinary. Mature fruit trees, ornamental gardens, and your own vineyard create a sense of privacy and tranquillity that cannot be boughy but only earned through time. Additional features of the residence include quadruple car garaging, separate laundry and a pool house complete with its own bathroom and kitchenette.
