35One of Parnell’s iconic Dilworth Terrace residences - a private enclave of Victorian brick residences positioned high on the Parnell ridge. From here, you’re just a short stroll to Parnell Village, the city centre, and Britomart. The outlook is exceptional: elevated views across the harbour to Rangitoto, with your own garden and private courtyard perfectly positioned for alfresco dining and enjoying afternoon sun. Inside, the generous volumes, sense of proportion and character are unmistakably elegant. High ceilings, deep skirting boards, traditional scotia, panelled doors, polished timber floors, fireplaces, and French doors opening to the garden - every detail reinforces the craftsmanship of the era. Everything simply feels right. The main living level includes a generous entrance hall with the original staircase, a formal lounge with a bay window framing the harbour, separate dining room, and an informal living room or home office. The entertainer’s kitchen connects seamlessly to both the courtyard and dining terraces. A separate laundry and guest powder room complete this level. The master suite enjoys garden access, extensive wardrobing and a private ensuite. Two further bedrooms and a family bathroom mirror the warmth and authenticity of the architectural period. From a practical standpoint, this residence exceeds expectations for an inner-city property, offering generous basement storage, a large double garage, and an additional guest car park. What makes Dilworth Terrace truly exceptional is the balance it offers: the scale and romance of a grand Victorian home - garden, views, privacy and multiple living spaces - combined with the ease of a lock-up-and-leave lifestyle on the edge of the city. A unique opportunity to secure a piece of Parnell’s most significant heritage.
