Spectacular One Level Living On Half An Acre Of Land
21 LAKE VIEW ROAD, TAKAPUNA
Lake View Road has long been regarded as one of the North Shore's best addresses, and number 21 Lake View Road offers an expansive 2,163 m² of North-facing land of level contour and exceptional elevation. The property benefits from the most phenomenal, panoramic lake views and it does so in complete privacy. This property can only be described as sublime and has to be one of the best slices of land North of the bridge in Auckland that is publicly for sale.
Astute buyers will understand this generational property is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. In fact, it is for sale for the first time in 41 years when the current owners "bought it on the spot". The home offers a lovely mix of formal and informal living spaces across its 340sqm of floor area. This comprises of a formal lounge, generous formal dining, casual lounge and also a rumpus room, ideal for children wanting some separation. The home is predominantly one level with just the fifth bedroom and home office/lounge on the first floor. This enables you to live entirely on one level. This trait has enabled the current owners' years of enjoyment with complete ease of living.
There are a total of five bedrooms in the home with the master offering superb views over the land and out to the lake. This space is great for morning cups of tea at sunrise and also offers a walk-in robe and ensuite. The balance of the three bedrooms on the ground floor lie off the main hallway and share a good-sized family bathroom. The comfortable nature and ease of living the dwelling provides offer an excellent interim package for the purchaser wanting to redevelop the site or alternatively good holding income if they are to rent it for a period before planning a major renovation or complete a new build.
The home is immaculately presented and has been kept up to date with new joinery where required and installation of the DVS system. The living flows out to an expansive level patio and grounds with pool and spa. Both the pool and the spa have been fitted with new heaters for all-year comfort. Weaving down to the lake edge you have a large deck, which houses a sailing dingy. This is the ideal location to swim from, launch water toys or just relax and enjoy with some bean bags in the summer.
On the top floor, there is a fifth bedroom with its own lounge fronting the lake. This makes a great guest suite with spectacular views and even a private balcony. The property is predominantly cedar-clad and is in good condition, having just been re-stained.

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.
