You’d be forgiven for not knowing this private haven exists. But once discovered, it’s unforgettable — a home that lingers in your mind for both its setting and its presence. Designed by renowned architect Paris Magdalinos, this is a residence that reveals more the longer you spend within it: striking glasswork, soaring layered ceilings, and a play of concave and vertical lines that open to wide, light-filled spaces with effortless grace.
Set back from the shoreline, the home captures sweeping views across orchards to the hills beyond — green, grand, and ever-changing, from spring blossoms to summer harvest. Its rear-section position provides true privacy and shelter from the sea breeze, while the sound of waves drifts through the air — the perfect convergence of coastal rhythm and rural calm.
Le Quesne Road is a cherished address where homes are held tightly for decades and seldom released. Here, you’re just minutes from Bay View village, local vineyards and restaurants, the airport, and only a short drive to Napier’s city centre.
The home itself offers four bedrooms and three bathrooms across two levels. The master suite, complete with walk-in robe and ensuite, is joined upstairs by two additional doubles, a family bathroom, and a mezzanine nook. Downstairs, the fourth bedroom, a further bathroom, and the home’s striking living spaces take centre stage. The kitchen — wrapped in glass and alive with morning light — features extensive stone benchtops, high-end appliances, and a walk-in pantry. From here, entertaining is effortless, with seamless flow through dining and lounge areas, each opening to generous outdoor living spaces — perfect for long afternoons and golden-hour evenings.
This is a rare meeting of architecture, landscape, and lifestyle — coastal living softened by lush rural outlooks. Whether as a remarkable family home, a graceful shift from rural life (without the stock), or a treasured holiday hideaway, it is a place of legacy and belonging.
A home of brilliance, balance, and connection — ready to be yours.
