About this property

Twenty-five years. One family. Zero times on the market — until now. Built by our owners who still call it home, this architecturally designed retreat sits on a rare 1012m² freehold section wrapped in total privacy — the kind of seclusion that's nearly impossible to find this close to the beach. Corrugated cedar-toned cladding, soaring ceilings, and a north-facing deck that disappears into the treetops. This isn't a renovation project or a flip. It's a first-time offering from a family who built it right and loved it for a quarter century. At a glance: • First time to market in 25 years — architecturally designed and owner-commissioned • 1012m² freehold section — genuinely private, tucked away from the road • Rangitoto College zoned, along with Browns Bay Primary, Northcross Intermediate and Murrays Bay Intermediate • Short, easy walk to Browns Bay village, cafés and the beach • Wide side driveway with potential for a second dwelling (subject to council consent), a pool, minor dwelling, or simply room to breathe • Sun-filled open-plan living opening to a full-width deck among mature trees • Wood burner, timber floors, and a layout built for easy family living • Vendors downsizing — genuine sellers, all offers considered Step off the street and the world falls away. Established trees close in around you, the traffic noise fades, and what's left is birdsong and your own patch of green — space enough for the kids to disappear into for an afternoon, enjoy the harvest of the existing 3 x vege patches, add a pool, or down the track, a second home on the section (subject to council consent). It's the kind of blank canvas that rarely comes up in Browns Bay, on a footprint this size, this private. Inside, the home presents beautifully — warm, light-filled, and clearly built with care rather than built to sell. It's the kind of place families move into and simply stay, which is exactly what happened here. Zoned for Rangitoto College and an easy stroll to the shops, cafés and sand of Browns Bay, this is a rare chance to secure land and lifestyle in one of the North Shore's most sought-after pockets — from an owner who's finally ready to let it go. Vendors are downsizing and want to see all offers. Character, privacy and land of this scale don't come around twice — don't miss this one.
