Private Poolside Sanctuary

Set within 6,255m² of established, park-like grounds, this distinctive cedar-clad residence is a home of rare character, space and atmosphere. Thoughtfully positioned it sits among mature trees and gardens, it offers exceptional privacy and tranquillity - a true sanctuary designed for relaxed family living.

Offered to the market for the very first time, the home has been loved and cherished by the same family since it was built, carefully maintained and enjoyed as a true long-term residence. Few properties carry such a genuine sense of history and belonging.

Built in 1973, the home reflects the enduring principles of late mid-century modern design and New Zealand regional modernism. The layout unfolds in a relaxed pavilion-style plan, with living spaces arranged to capture light, sun and outlooks while maintaining a sense of shelter and retreat. From the moment you arrive, the property feels calm, grounded and completely at ease within its surroundings.

The character of the home is expressed through warm timber tones, generous glazing and effortless indoor-outdoor flow. Extensive cedar cladding and timber joinery create a natural, tactile feel, reminiscent of the timber modern homes of the Pacific Northwest - where architecture is defined by a close relationship with trees, landscape and natural materials. Large windows frame garden views from almost every room, allowing the home to blend softly into its surroundings.

The residence offers approximately 250m² of living, including four bedrooms within the main home, along with a self-contained lower-level unit. This flexible space is ideal for extended family, guests, teenagers or independent accommodation, allowing the home to adapt easily as needs change.

Inside, the atmosphere is inviting and relaxed. Living spaces are generous and light-filled, with a striking original stone fireplace forming the heart of the main lounge. Large windows and sliding doors connect naturally to the poolside terrace, reinforcing the home's easy indoor-outdoor lifestyle.

The kitchen sits centrally within the home, offering a modern, practical layout that feels open, welcoming and naturally connected to everyday life. Bathrooms and service areas have been thoughtfully updated while respecting the original character of the home.

Every room carries its own mood and texture, creating a home that feels layered, personal and genuinely unique rather than newly manufactured.

Outdoor living is central to the home. A heated swimming pool sits within a sheltered, sun-filled setting, surrounded by paved and timber surfaces that feel authentic to the era. This area becomes a natural extension of the house - perfect for summer days, gatherings with friends, or quiet moments of escape.

The grounds are exceptional in both scale and diversity. Expansive lawns are balanced with established gardens, wetland areas and a tranquil pond, with waterways and footbridges creating a sense of discovery throughout the property. Mature native and exotic trees provide privacy and seasonal change, while vegetable gardens and fruit trees support a productive lifestyle. A private grass tennis court completes the picture of a true family estate.

Practical features include a separate workshop and garden shed, discreetly positioned within the grounds, along with multiple outdoor zones that offer both openness and intimacy.

Properties of this nature are increasingly rare - combining substantial land, privacy, flexibility and authentic mid-century modern character in one remarkable setting. Held by one family since new and now presented for sale for the first time, this is more than just a home - it is a complete lifestyle sanctuary, offering space to live, grow and relax in an environment that feels a world away from the everyday.
