A glamorous tropical-style property owned by Auckland hairdressing power couple Jacci and Paul Huege De Serville is for sale after they separated.

The four-bedroom house is expected to fetch around $5.5 million.

The Servilles are hairdressers to Auckland's celebrity set.

Their business empire includes leading salons at Takapuna, Newmarket, Mission Bay, Albany and Ponsonby, plus the Servilles Academy.

The Park Ave house, 10m from Takapuna Beach, is being sold by Graham Wall, who last month sold New Zealand's most expensive residential property, the $24m futuristic Herne Bay home of John and Rose Dunn.

Marketing of the Huege De Serville house emphasised its extensive renovations.

"A truly unique Palm Springs-style house, a rework of an original 1970s home. It is a perfect example of two creative geniuses, the Serville family and Fearon Hay Architects," advertising material said.

Paul Huege De Serville said the renovation was extensive, took two years and cost "quite a few million".

"It was a cool house anyway but we wanted it brought into the now. It took two years and was finished about two years ago."

The couple lived there with their three children, one aged 23 and twins aged 20, he said.

Jacci Huege De Serville also praised the architects.

"I absolutely love, love this house. What [they] designed was amazing and it's the most stunning, light, easy house to live in."

She was upset to be leaving it.

"This is the saddest time for myself and my three children who all live with me. It breaks my heart having to sell this beautiful house."
