An inspired collaboration between RTA Studio & Susan Gower Design has transformed this classic Grey Lynn villa into a unique and extraordinary private retreat.
The current owners have lived here for the past 29 years and worked with Richard Naish to extend and expand the original footprint, which created more space for family living and maximised the lush, tranquil grounds at the rear.
Interior design expertise is evident throughout, with every inch meticulously considered for both beauty and functionality. A harmonious balance of old and new has been expertly achieved with a calming palette of macrocarpa, matai, polished concrete and glass. Innovative skylight placements enhance privacy, ventilation and natural light.
The original home at the front has four double bedrooms (one incorporating generous desk area with Tiltaway queen bed for versatility) and two bathrooms. At the rear, the living and kitchen spaces are warmed by a wood burning fire, underfloor floor heating and unfold to a glass-enclosed dining space and elevated second lounge.
All spaces enjoy a seamless connection with the garden and lush tranquil treescape. Exquisite grounds have been developed over nearly three decades, with the native and tropical plantings creating a private haven. The level lawn provides space for kids to play and there’s also room for a pool.
Back inside, the lower level incorporates carpeted internal garaging and a generous storage room, complemented with two additional off-street parks. Extras like underfloor heating, radiators and a surround sound system enhance this home.
Sought-after Selbourne Street is a short walk from Grey Lynn School, Grey Lynn Park, West Lynn’s bars, eateries and public transport. You're also handy to motorway onramps, Grey Lynn village and Ponsonby.
