LISTING DESCRIPTION
as of November 2014

'Lorraine' Iconic And Stately Home Or Prized Block Of Four Steeped in the richest of histories and nestled on approx 1000sqm (subject to confirmation) of sprawling manicured lawns, this stunning property is one of the few remaining Fairlight mansions, a grand residence that has inhabited its distinguished position for almost a century.Elegant period attributes dominate the property, from the exquisite 1917 fa??ade with shingle, brick and lead-light window details to the majestic interiors. Towering ceilings are dressed with a delicate lacework of cornicing, panels and roses. Picture rails line the walls, the old milk delivery window sits proudly on a kitchen wall, bay windows and fireplaces feature in multiple rooms and the bathrooms display original subway and tessellated tiles that are a testament to the endurance and quality of the workmanship throughout.As Rosedale Avenue bends softly, the Lorraine property capitalizes on the resulting additional land, and extends across the entire block to Hilltop Crescent ??? a spectacular level parcel with unprecedented dual access. Lovingly maintained by the same family for nearly 60 years, the building is currently configured into four flats on the one title. With further development/enhancement opportunities, this approx 1,000sqm (STC) site offers enormous scope to be so many things to so many people, it is simply only limited by your imagination and subject to council approval.In three flats a large living room welcomes you, with the main bedroom adjoining. Stepping through the grand lounge, a further bedroom and bathroom are reached, with Flat Two housing an additional third bedroom and Flat One's hallway leading to the grandest of the living areas. The rear of each home is dedicated to the kitchen, dining and sunroom, where brilliant natural light is delivered via a spectacular due North orientation.From here the expansive rear level yard extends to Hilltop Crescent and is easily accessed from each flat, while peaceful outlooks over the district are enjoyed from the top floor. Four lockup garages and a shared laundry provide abundant storage and amenity without impinging on the grounds.Nearly a century ago this site, with favourable topography and close proximity to the waters of North Harbour, was deemed worthy for a home of great grandeur. Today, the superb position continues to enjoy these highlights as well as easy walking access to city transport and a range of conveniences, supplying a modern beachside lifestyle of distinction.
