Price Drop Motivated Owner Wants It Sold

For the first time in four decades, this special piece of Kenepuru Sound is ready for new owners, new stories, and new summers filled with joy. The current owner is motivated and keen to see all offers - this could be your time to make it yours.

This cherished Kenepuru Sound retreat, has a feeling the moment you arrive. A quiet kind of magic that wraps around you and makes you want to stay a little longer, breathe a little deeper, slow right down. This is one of those places.

Perched to catch the first golden rays of morning and hold the light right through to sunset, this much-loved home gazes out over the sparkling waters of Kenepuru Sound - a view that never tires, no matter how many years pass. For over four decades, this home has been the setting for family holidays, long lazy summers, the laughter of children, the gentle hum of boats on the bay. Now, for the first time in 40 years, the opportunity has come for new memories to be made.

Tucked away in the sought-after Nopera area - home to the only golf course in the Marlborough Sounds - this is a place where life can be as relaxed or as adventurous as you choose. Mornings might begin with coffee on the deck, the still water turning pink with the dawn. Later, perhaps a round of golf, a quick fish for snapper in the warm Sound, or a slow boat ride to one of the nearby resorts - Hopewell, Portage, Te Mahia, or Te Rawa - for lunch on the deck and a cold drink in the sun.

The home is simple and welcoming - Double glazed, fully insulated, four generous bedrooms for family and friends, two living spaces so everyone can spread out, and a wide deck where summer meals stretch into the evening as the sun dips low across the bay. It's sold fully furnished, so there's nothing to do but arrive, settle in, and let the Sounds work their quiet magic.

There's room for the boat, the mower, the tractor - everything has its place in the huge high-stud shed, the double garage, the lean-to. There's even the option to negotiate the tractor and ride-on mower, if you want to keep the place just - so between adventures.

And when the grandkids come to stay - or you decide to make this your fulltime home - Waitaria Bay School is just down the way, a tiny country school with fewer than ten children and a community that knows and cares for its own. It's the kind of place that's hard to leave. Harder still to forget. A home where every sunrise feels like a promise and every sunset feels like a blessing.
