192A Huia Road Titirangi, Waitakere City

Designed by renowned architect Darren Jessop and built in 2009, this masterpiece is a home of extraordinary quality, presence and peace - a residence of such calibre it was once published in Home Magazine. Privately positioned at the end of a meandering, tree lined driveway, it feels worlds away from suburbia - yet remains within minutes of vibrant village life and only a 30 minute (off peak) commute to Auckland's CBD.

Architecturally striking yet beautifully liveable, the home was designed to embrace its magnificent native bush setting. The entertaining wing - kitchen, dining and main living - rises to a dramatic 4.5 metre ceiling, with an entire wall of glass sliding doors opening northward to sweeping green views. Light floods the expansive open plan space and by night, carefully positioned lighting transforms the bush into a private wonderland.

At its heart, the designer kitchen is both statement and sanctuary - sleek dark cabinetry, and premium appliances including a programmable in-built coffee machine. Seamless indoor-outdoor flow extends from the main living areas to an array of exceptional outdoor entertaining spaces, both covered and uncovered decks, including a semi-enclosed all weather outdoor lounge with heating - perfect for year-round entertaining.

The bedroom wing is thoughtfully designed for privacy, with the master suite featuring a spacious dressing room and a luxurious ensuite that opens to the surrounding bush for a serene, spa-like experience, with sliding doors leading out to a secluded deck. Adjacent, a second lounge known as "The Retreat" offers a private sanctuary and peaceful secluded space for adults away from the rest of the home.

With three heat pumps, gas fire, log burner and underfloor heating, comfort is assured in every season. Extensive off-street parking, double garaging and the security of a secluded and tree-lined shared driveway enhance peace of mind.

Surrounded by conservation land and birdsong - tui, fantails, wood pigeons and moreporks - this is more than a home. It is a retreat, an oasis, a rare combination of architectural excellence and near priceless serenity. Minutes to beaches, bush walks and the cafes and galleries of Titirangi Village, yet feeling utterly tucked away - truly one of Auckland's finest lifestyle sanctuaries.
