5 Saratoga Avenue, Herne Bay

On the premium northern slopes of Herne Bay, this fabulous home has been loved for 32 years in this mid-century cul-de-sac, honouring a time of endurance and classic design. Built in 1960 and reimagined by Julian Guthrie Architecture in 2017, the home holds two hearts with the kitchen and the pool. The living and kitchen area is a sensational gathering place, with the soft hues of rimu floors opening to the sheltered courtyard for your breakfast latte, or the large north facing deck overlooking the pool. The kitchen (by Kelly Gammie of Eucalyptus Design) is luxuriously large with its stunning 4.2m bench top to congregate around plus a scullery style pantry. The expansive family room opens to the incredible 16m heated pool that basks in all day sun on the north side. With two bedrooms on this level, bathroom plus super-sized laundry equipped with fridge, heated towel rail, and storage, this is the perfect place for all aged children or extended family. Only a few minutes stroll to Bayfield primary school, and so close to Jervois village along with the delights of Ponsonby. Please call to make a private viewing in Level 3. Auction to be held in-rooms at New Zealand Sotheby's International Realty Auckland Office 11:30 a.m. Thursday 28 October 2021 (unless sold prior).
