50 Years Tightly Held – Breathtakingly Spectacular Harbour Views
Take a deep breath, ..... prepare to be spellbound as you enter this harbour grandstand home, geographically occupying the most spectacular location and private waterfront world on Auckland's North Shore, directly next door to the majestic North Head.
Capture every moment of the 'Hauraki Gulf Highway' armada of yachts and cruise ships passing directly past your windows - this unequivocally must be Devonport's (if not Auckland's) ultimate cliff top location.
Laurie & Jocelyn Spinley are only the 2nd owners since the original subdivision in 1923, purchasing 38 Jubilee Ave in 1973 and undertaking a total rebuild 6 years later. Reluctantly selling, it is now available for the first time in over 50 years. This outstanding property represents an incredibly rare find in an extremely tightly held neighbourhood. Step inside and you will never want to leave!
The clifftop house has its foundations sitting on Volcanic rock. Land size is 1,047m2 (more or less) with the 1979 "no expense spared" full rebuild increasing the floor area to 380m2 (approx). This family home represents a masterpiece of craftsmanship of its era, built with exquisite attention to detail.
The split-level main home showcases unbelievable 360-degree views, open plan formal lounge & dining, family room, 4 bedrooms & 4 bathrooms, study, upstairs retreat and enormous storage. Not to mention those inspirational panoramic views stretching to the CBD & Harbour Bridge, all the way down past Bean Rock lighthouse. Adjoining is a bonus guest studio (or large home office) above one of the 2 double garages, plus carport, off street and boat or motorhome parking.
This once in a lifetime opportunity presents itself with solid bones as a blank canvass to modernize and redecorate, transforming the ultimate location into a destination and family home that reflects your dreams and aspirations, ensuring the legacy continues for future generations.
