- Description
This stunning mid century two bedroom + study home, perched on the hills of Northland, enjoys the most incredible views over the Botanical Gardens, city and harbour. Designed by the architect Anthony Treadwell for the famous NZ potter Dame Vera Doreen Blumhardt in 1957, it has since been absolutely cherished by its current owner.
An extension in the 1970s created an extra living space and the home's decoration is a nod to the era it was designed, with authentic pieces mixed in with some modern touches. Those who appreciate good design will admire the clean lines, purposeful functionality and built in storage through out, and the use of natural textures including a stunning Tawa timber ceiling. The extensive windows connect the interior to the sweeping vista, offer maximum light, and allow for the numerous open plan spaces to sit and enjoy the view.
The terraced garden, showcasing a magnificent magnolia and numerous rhododendrons, attract abundant bird life and produce ever changing scenery. Two pretty garden studios offer the versatility to be used for whatever you need, return one to its original pottery shed or create an Air BnB scenario.
This is a home with a wonderful history. It has provided inspiration its owners. Now it is time to make it yours.
