Andrew specialises in marketing homes on the golden mile between Milford and Takapuna and around the waterfront. In the last eight consecutive calendar years, Andrew has sold over $100 million each year, at an average of over $5,000,000 per property – one of the highest (in volume and average sale price) residentially in the country. While he is renowned for dealing with higher value properties, Andrew has also carved a niche in the seaward side streets in and around Milford and Takapuna, especially with the lock-up-and-leave market. He sees a strong correlation between larger homes and the downsizer market assisting those vendors with their next purchase.

Having had the privilege of viewing some of the finest homes across the North Shore over many years, it is not often that a property genuinely takes your breath away. Walking through the front door of this remarkable Castor Bay residence was one of those rare moments.
Proudly positioned on a spectacular cliff-top site with panoramic 180-degree views, including a dramatic aspect right down the beach, this is a home that delivers an extraordinary coastal lifestyle. Located just moments from Milford Beach, Milford Village, cafes, restaurants and everyday amenities, the position offers both convenience and a sense of complete escape.
Occupying the premier end position within an enclave of three other residences, the home enjoys a privileged forward aspect that maximises privacy, sunshine and arguably some of the finest views available anywhere on this coastline.
A grand double-height foyer creates an immediate sense of arrival. The main living level has been thoughtfully designed around the stunning outlook, with two generous living areas, an open-plan kitchen and dining space that all enjoy a strong connection to the water. Large arched windows frame the ever-changing seascapes, while multiple entertaining areas flow effortlessly outdoors. This is a home that just “feels right.”
The sun-filled pool terrace provides a wonderful setting for family living and entertaining. Beyond, beautifully landscaped grounds lead to a lower viewing deck where the dramatic coastal position needs to be seen to be fully appreciated. Thanks to its forward placement relative to neighbouring properties, the home enjoys exceptional all-day sun throughout the year.
Accommodation is arranged across the upper level, where four generous double bedrooms are complemented by two bathrooms, including an ensuite. The two waterfront bedrooms are particularly special, opening directly onto a substantial rooftop deck that captures breathtaking views across the Gulf, Milford Beach and beyond.
Practicality is equally impressive. Secure parking for four vehicles, additional off-street parking, a dedicated gym or work-from-home space, separate laundry, heat pumps on both levels and a gas fireplace ensure the home functions as well as it inspires.
An extraordinary opportunity to secure an exceptional coastal residence in one of the North Shore’s most tightly held locations.
Perfectly positioned one back from the beach in the heart of Milford, this substantial five-bedroom residence delivers the ultimate blend of coastal sophistication, family functionality, unmatched proximity and effortless entertaining. Extensively renovated, the home now showcases timeless brick and weatherboard construction and double-glazed joinery throughout, ensuring exceptional comfort and acoustic quality year-round.
This is your family's dream home that offers space, views, proximity, parking and even room for a dedicated park for a large boat or, better still, a Sealegs!! The home centres around expansive ground-floor open-plan living that flows seamlessly to sun-soaked North-facing outdoor entertaining. A beautifully appointed kitchen with marble benchtops, feature bar cabinetry and natural American oak flooring creates a warm yet refined atmosphere.
Outdoor living is superb and showcases the property's exceptional position and all-day sun. Alfresco entertaining features a built-in BBQ, pizza oven and outdoor fireplace, while newly landscaped grounds soften the setting and create privacy throughout. A built-in sauna, outdoor shower and spa pool further elevate the lifestyle offering and complete the resort-style feel.
A separate media snug, divided by a feature louvre screen, provides flexibility for growing families and an ideal retreat for children or quiet evenings. Three generous double bedrooms (one with an ensuite) and a family bathroom are positioned on the ground floor, offering excellent accommodation options for family, guests or work-from-home living.
Upstairs, the master suite is a true sanctuary and is generous in scale. It features its own lounge area, private deck and surprisingly expansive sea views! A bespoke walk-in wardrobe with feature cabinetry and brass accents and a functional ensuite adds a touch of luxury. An additional upstairs bedroom also enjoys water views and a large walk-in wardrobe, while a further lounge or study area creates the perfect teenage retreat or third lounge.
Completing the package is the recently constructed oversized double garage, designed to accommodate two long vehicles with ease while still providing exceptional storage space above. There is additional off-street parking in front of the garage for two cars, while a real feature is the separate crossing. This offers valuable space for a boat, campervan or caravan — an increasingly rare feature this close to the beach.
