This spectacular lifestyle property won a Gold Reserve Award as National Finalist in the Master Builders Federation 2007 ‘House of the Year’. Perfectly positioned on 2.5 hectares to take advantage of farmland, lake and sea views across the Hauraki Gulf to Rangitoto, this one year old, 900m2+ home makes dramatic use of timber in exposed beams, rafters, sarking and bi-fold doors that lead to wide decks and a heated infinity pool. Add to this an award-winning kitchen, an underground wine cellar, four bedrooms including romantic master suite with fireplace, linked by a bridge to a home theatre.
Dining is pure drama in a room that’s suspended over a stream, opening to the garden in summer and closing in around a huge schist fireplace for winter. Six-car garaging and a three bedroom guest house complete the luxury-lodge ambience. It’s country living at its most glamorous, a 30 to 40 minute drive from Auckland’s CBD and International Airport.
