Enjoy lakeside living in this exclusive Takapuna development

Bayleys Real Estate, Takapuna

The Black Swans is an iconic development befitting its exceptional Takapuna lakefront location – with the name a nod to Lake Pupuke’s famous winged residents. Comprising a trio of contemporary standalone residences, design aficionados will covet the striking modernist architecture and exemplary level of luxury on offer.

Number 314 Hurstmere Road is located on the famed Golden Mile, close to where the street intersects with Kitchener Road. This sought-after lake-front site is perfectly placed within easy walking distance to both Takapuna and Milford and a choice of golden beaches.

Takapuna is recognised as the heart of the North Shore and has it all, a thriving beachside community renowned for its enticing array of cuisine, culture and couture. Milford village is equally as loved by locals, with a choice of two supermarkets, a shopping mall, marina and many cafes and restaurants.

Outdoor recreational activities abound, with the coastal walkway connecting the beaches making for a pleasant stroll, kayaking, windsurfing and paddleboarding on the lake, boat launching from the Takapuna ramp and swimming at a choice of beautiful bays.

Celebrated New Zealand architect Chris Tate brought the vision for the development to life, creating the residences with his edgy signature style. Each home is a functioning work of art both inside and out, with concrete block and black aluminium louvres creating exterior drama, complemented with an industrial chic interior design aesthetic.

Each north-facing home is on its own freehold title – meaning no body corporate fees – and has been designed to maximise its own unique position and aspect. Oak hardwood floors and sarked cedar ceilings add warmth to the stylish interiors, which flow out to concrete patios and decks. As well as being visually spectacular, the homes are fitted with up-to-the-minute functional inclusions like Cat-5 data cabling, bluetooth sound systems, energy efficient LED lighting and integrated security systems.

Layouts were designed with precision and care, offering 3-4 bedrooms, two bathrooms and the future-proofing convenience of a lift. All master suites are located on the top floor and have their own ensuite and dressing room. Each home enjoys private individual access and double internal garaging, and is enveloped within an easy-care, native-focussed landscape design concept.

Of the three, only two remain available for purchase from the plans. The lakefront home is set on 400m² of land with a north-west facing garden and private access to the lake, with the other property located on a slightly smaller site, enjoying both gulf and lake views and private shared lake access. Resource consent is in place, with building expected to commence shortly after the Christmas break.

If you are seeking a well-positioned luxury new home, or a stylish lock-up and leave, you will be delighted to discover this exceptional and rare Takapuna opportunity.
