A gated peninsula in the inner Tauranga Harbour, sharing the exclusivity of this position with just four other residences.

Situated in an elevated waterfront position with a northerly aspect and views toward Mauao. Easy water access via a limited reserve frontage provides for high tide swims or fishing, and low tide walks and exploration of the harbour foreshore.

Designed for its vendors by Brendon Gordon Architects to capture the essence and enjoy the benefits of this special location, whilst providing for easy modern living, ideal for a couple with visiting friends or family, but also accommodating families and children.

A unique pool and engaging landscaping were created by the owner, an English landscape artist, designed to be easy to maintain, and to evolve to meet the needs of its next owner. The lawn features a sculptural piece by Steuart Welch – Acrux, or affectionately known as Mr Wiggles. A vacant Lot currently for sale next door offers buyers the opportunity to double the land holding, further increasing options.

An ample arrivals area momentarily glimpses the views through a sheltered courtyard and the home's main living area. Internal access garaging eaves lead to a covered entry deck and foyer, delivering you centrally in the home.

The main living wing of the home is single-level with generous openings to the outdoors and surrounding deck spaces. The kitchen, living, dining area, and a large separate lounge/media room envelope the courtyard. There is exceptional flow throughout this large, flexible living space, which also discreetly offers, behind large double doors, two work/study spaces.

An award-winning designer kitchen, complete with European appliances and Blum kitchen island automated cabinetry, is enhanced by a plumbed scullery featuring direct access to the pool area.

Far from the living spaces and a floor below the other bedrooms, bedroom 4 is an ideal guest suite; ground floor, direct access to a private garden deck with views to the water, and an adjacent bathroom. The guest bathroom serves the pool with direct access to the pool deck.

The master bedroom takes the crow's nest position with a runway dressing room and a functional designer ensuite. A massive recessed picture window with its bevelled transition to the edges of the building, accentuates and draws in the views.

Two other bedroom spaces and a shared bathroom, complete with a bath, are available on this level on the opposing side of the stairwell from the master. The larger of these two rooms, having been originally conceived as a luxurious office space, is well suited to either, or other, uses.

Function and comfort have been thoroughly considered throughout, from storage to lighting design, and hydronic central heating. An independent laundry sits adjacent to the garage, and like the generous double garage, connects directly to a rear utility deck and the side yard.

A 6.96kW grid-tied solar array and both shared bore and rainwater collection provide for potential autonomy.

SHADOWMAP

New Feature

We invite you to try out this recent addition to our marketing platform. Shadowmap is a tool for visualising and understanding how the sun tracks in relation to a property throughout the year.

Important Notes:

  • We’ve tested this against real-life, on-site conditions and it’s generally been very accurate. However, it doesn’t account for the extra sunlight that passes through deciduous trees during the winter months, which in many instances is a significant difference.

  • This tool is most user-friendly on desktop/laptop devices.
