Description

Elevated to capture sweeping views across the city and out to the beach, this magnificent roughcast villa stands as a testament to timeless craftsmanship and enduring quality. Once configured as three flats and now thoughtfully transformed into a substantial family residence, this is a home of impressive proportions and remarkable versatility. Offering four generously sized bedrooms and two beautifully appointed bathrooms, the scale here is immediately evident - wide hallways, soaring ceilings and grand character

features speak to an era where homes were built to last. At the heart of the home, the living, dining and kitchen spaces provide a wonderful foundation - spacious and filled with natural light - while still offering the opportunity for you to add your own style and further enhance the value of this already exceptional property. Warmth and comfort are assured with a feature fireplace and extensive double glazing, creating a cosy atmosphere while retaining the home’s authentic charm. Positioned proudly on an elevated site, the property offers the convenience of two-car street garaging, along with driveway access leading right to the front door - practicality meeting presence. And then there’s the land - not only do you secure this grand family home on a generous section, but also 14B next door: a sprawling lawn framed by well-established fruit trees. A true family haven, it’s the perfect space for children to play, gatherings with friends, or simply enjoying the privacy and serenity of your own green oasis. Lovingly held and cherished by one family for the past 25 years, this is a home filled with history, heart and happy memories - now ready for its next chapter. Homes of this calibre, scale and position are seldom available and truly must be experienced in person to appreciate the craftsmanship and opportunity on offer. This is more than a home - it’s a legacy.

Key Fact

NZ has strict biosecurity laws — importing food, plants, or outdoor gear can result in heavy fines. The work-life balance is exceptional, but the job market is small and remote from everywhere.

Next steps for moving to New Zealand

Interested in this property? Here's how to move forward.

1

Understand the buying rules

Foreign ownership laws vary wildly by country. Some welcome you, others restrict or ban foreign buyers entirely.

2

Sort out your visa

Owning property doesn't give you the right to live there. Research residency options before you buy.

3

Plan your finances

Understand currency risk, international wire transfers, and whether you can get a local mortgage.

4

Know your tax obligations

US citizens are taxed on worldwide income. You'll need to file US taxes from abroad and may owe local taxes too.

5

Set up healthcare

Medicare doesn't cover you overseas. You'll need international health insurance or a local plan.

6

Run the full checklist

Banking, mail forwarding, power of attorney, pet import rules — the complete pre-move checklist.
