Some homes just feel right the moment you walk in, and this stunning Glendowie property is elegant and timeless, yet with a relaxed coastal ease. Originally built in the nineteen sixties and completely reimagined by Scarlet Architects, it feels brand new, balancing connection and privacy and the changing needs of your family.At its heart, this is a generous five-bedroom haven on eight hundred nine square meters, with multiple living zones across two levels and seamless outdoor flow to an elevated deck and a family-sized concrete pool below. But what sets this home apart is its ability to transform.When required, part of the ground floor can be closed off to create a fully self-contained two bedroom apartment — with a family-sized kitchen, laundry, open-plan living, and direct access to the outdoors and pool. With a separate internet connection, alarm system, and thoughtful acoustic treatment, it offers genuine independence and privacy. Whether it is extended family, adult children, long-term guests, or even a live-in tenant arrangement, it is a rare level of flexibility that is difficult to find.Upstairs, the home opens into a light-filled living space anchored by a beautifully considered kitchen with customized storage, a striking benchtop, and a fully equipped butler’s pantry that keeps everything in its place. Defined living and dining areas flow naturally to another standout feature — a sheltered outdoor room framed by adjustable shutters, allowing you to control light and breeze throughout the day.This level also houses a stunning master suite, two further bedrooms, and a dedicated study. You will love the interior styling carefully crafted with a bespoke approach that elevates every room including custom built-ins and beautifully finished bathrooms with classic wainscoting and tiling.And finally there’s the location. Positioned on a peaceful tree-lined avenue between Churchill Park and Glendowie Reserve; you are just moments from green spaces coastal walkways top local schools cafes  and clubs.This is a fabulous family home that not only works for today but evolves with you — thoughtfully designed highly functional  and ready for whatever comes next.Auction: thirty-four Shortland Street City on Wednesday thirteenth May twenty twenty-six at ten o’clock AM (unless sold prior)
