Front-Row Favourite
Auction

3 Deans Ave, Chch
Please contact Adam Heazlewood for private viewing details.
Architectural pedigree, an extraordinary 918sqm plot of land and front-row positioning to Sumner Beach give this residence a level of coastal rarity few can rival and even fewer could repeat.
Taking a prominent corner position at Burgess Street and The Esplanade, this David Hill-designed residence brings architectural authorship to one of Sumner's most exceptional addresses, with the 2015 build combining modern lines, warm timber detailing and expansive glazing around sun, light and sea views.
The entrance introduces the home with immediate scale, drawing the eye through the downstairs living area before the layout rises to an upper level claimed by the coastline.
Everyday living is given generous ground and a spectacular beachfront outlook upstairs, with the Ingrid Geldof-designed kitchen, dining area and lounge coming together across one expansive setting before multiple outdoor areas extend entertaining into the sun, sea air and sea-front scenery.
The spacious master suite also takes top-floor privileges, pairing a substantial walk-in wardrobe with a luxurious en-suite.
A dedicated study also takes its place upstairs, giving work a defined setting without interrupting the social spaces, while an internal lift brings accessibility into the architecture and valuable ease to the years ahead.
A substantial second living room gives the day another direction downstairs, joined by two bedrooms and the family bathroom, while a separate laundry, dedicated wine storage and a gym alongside the internal-access double garage give family life far more functionality and room to move.
Outdoors, the 918sqm section gives the property a completely different dimension, with an expansive level lawn, established gardens and raised planter beds creating space for entertaining, play and gardening on a scale seldom seen this close to Sumner Beach.
The coastline is virtually at the door, putting beach walks, swims and coffee runs into easy everyday reach, while central Sumner with its cafés, shops and village life sits just 100 metres away at the other end of the street, turning one of Christchurch's most prized lifestyles into a daily routine.
Bringing together top-tier positioning, large-scale land, architectural distinction and long-term liveability, this property confidently stands among Sumner's most exclusive.
