Your Own Private Beachfront Paradise

Dreaming of a place by the sea where the days are spent barefoot on the beach, listening to the gentle lap of the water and the birdsong from the surrounding bush? This could be the Marlborough Sounds escape you've been waiting for.

With approximately 150 metres of easily accessible beachfront, this exceptional road-access property delivers the kind of waterfront lifestyle that is becoming increasingly difficult to find. Expansive lawns lead effortlessly from the home, and passed beautifully established gardens, down to the sand and water, creating your own private playground right on the doorstep.

The gardens are a real highlight, with mature fruit trees, established plantings and plenty of space to relax and enjoy the sunshine. From the expansive deck, the panoramic views stretch across the water and down the bay, creating a spectacular backdrop from morning through to sunset. As the sun drops, the outlook becomes even more magical.

The spacious main home is designed to make the most of its incredible setting, with four bedrooms and two bathrooms, including a generous master bedroom with ensuite and huge walk-in wardrobe. The modern kitchen and open-plan living areas are light, spacious and sun-filled, with seamless connection to the impressive deck and those unforgettable water views.

And then there is the infrastructure. You won't be short of space for the boats, bikes and beach toys, with a large garage, two carports, garden shed and substantial boathouse, complete with verandah and outdoor shower. Launch your boat directly from the beach in front of the property, with your own mooring included to make getting out on the water even easier.

For family and friends, the self-contained studio is an outstanding bonus - perfect for guests, extended family, teenagers, a home-based business or even a homestay opportunity.

Located approximately 25 minutes by road from Havelock or just 15 minutes by boat, you get the best of both worlds: genuine accessibility combined with the privacy and tranquillity of your own waterfront retreat.

The property is immaculately maintained and is offered fully furnished, with an impressive list of extras including a tractor, ride-on mower, quad bike and more.

This is far more than simply a home. It is a complete Marlborough Sounds lifestyle - your own beach, your own mooring, your own private oasis and everything you need to make the most of it.

A true pearl of the Marlborough Sounds.
