Set against one of the most spectacular stretches of the Kaikoura coastline, this extraordinary estate offers a rare combination of privacy, scale, and uncompromising views. With sweeping ocean panoramas, two high-quality dwellings, established gardens, native bush, and exceptional outdoor living, this is a property that truly stands apart.
Positioned just 15 minutes south of Kaikoura and within easy reach of Christchurch, Auchinleck is a coastal retreat of substance. The main residence is a substantial four bedroom home spanning more than 300m2 (approx), (subject to survey), complimented by a separate, fully self-contained apartment - ideal for guests, extended family, or income generation. Few places offer a morning view quite like this.
The lower level of the main home is thoughtfully designed, featuring three generous bedrooms, including one with it's own ensuite, along with a stylish family bathroom. A wide, welcoming hallway connects the sleeping quarters with internal garaging and expansive outdoor areas, ensuring both comfort and practicality.
Upstairs, accessed via staircase or internal lift, the home truly comes to life. The open-plan living zone is framed by vast glazing, drawing the ocean and sky into the space. A premium kitchen anchors the room, while expansive decks extending over 100m2 (approx) on both sides create effortless indoor/outdoor flow and provide multiple vantage points to enjoy the ever-changing coastal outlook.
The upper-level master suite is a private retreat, offering commanding sea views, spectacular sunrises, and an ensuite where dolphins and orca are often spotted offshore.
Entertaining is effortless, with a generous outdoor living area complete with a built-in fire and seating - perfect for relaxed evenings year-round. Beyond this lies a landscaped lawn, a peaceful native bush walk with a stream, and access to one of the property's five garages. The established gardens are a standout feature, boasting fruit trees and vegetable beds that reflect the care invested by the current owners.
Adding further flexibility, the self-contained apartment above the separate double garage and workshop includes its own kitchen, bathroom, and private balcony. Whether used for holiday accommodation, visiting family, or a dedicated work-from-home space, it offers versatility without compromise.
From the refined interiors to the natural beauty that surrounds it - and of course, the dramatic coastline at its doorstep - this is a property designed to be experienced.
