Off Grid Luxury, Above the Rest

No words can truly do this property justice. It is a place that must be felt to be understood. The scale, the warmth of the earth walls beneath your fingertips, the vast horizon stretching from the Tangihua Ranges across Whangarei Heads and out over the endless blue of Bream Bay.

For those familiar with rammed earth homes, no introduction is needed. You already understand the quiet luxury they offer, exceptional thermal performance, incredible durability, natural beauty and a healthy toxin free environment unlike conventional construction. For those discovering rammed earth for the first time, prepare for your perspective on modern living to completely change.

Perched proudly across just over 7.3 ha on two separate titles, the 287 sqm residence has been carefully designed to embrace both the landscape and the lifestyle. Expansive bifold doors dissolve the boundary between indoors and out, allowing the home to open completely to the surrounding views and fresh country air.

The designer kitchen is a statement in itself, crafted with solid timber cabinetry, granite benchtops and gas appliances. The home offers three bedrooms with the option of a fourth bedroom or separate lounge/recreation room, two bathrooms including an ensuite, and a substantial four bay internal access garage.

But what truly sets this property apart is its forward thinking approach to living. With generous solar infrastructure, battery storage, double glazed multidirectional joinery and a German engineered wetback fireplace capable of heating the entire underfloor system, the property is fully self sustaining and completely off grid. This is luxury without compromise, a cutting edge approach to energy efficiency and sustainability.

Outside, the land unfolds into a mixture of grazing paddocks currently home to horses, native bush and a running stream winding through the base of the property. And then there are the moments you cannot quantify. Soaking in the outdoor bathtubs beneath the stars. Watching weather roll across the ranges from the warmth of the living room. Opening every bifold on a summer evening and feeling completely immersed in the landscape around you.

Escape to serenity, where the great outdoors meets luxury relaxation and every day feels like a getaway. Contact Rae Ocean and Sandie Kirkman today to experience it for yourself.
