In the Kara Sanctuary at Maungatapere, this five-bedroom residence delivers resort calm with rural freedom. A crisp, entertainer’s kitchen with scullery anchors generous open living and bi-folds open to a stone-pillared loggia and broad patios that invite you outdoors. Light, volume and long green views set the tone for everyday ease and celebration-grade gatherings.

The master suite is private and indulgent with terrace access; the remaining bedrooms are spacious and flexible for family, guests or work. A large laundry and internal-access double garage keep life organised. Outside, sculpted lawns, shelter belts and water create a natural amphitheatre for alfresco living. Kayak and play on the lake, host long lunches under cover, watch the hills turn gold at dusk.

A separate three-bay shed takes care of the boat, the toys and the projects without stealing the show. Schools, services and city access are close enough for convenience, yet the sanctuary setting keeps life quiet and secure.

Modern design. Water on your doorstep. Privacy that’s hard to find, and a location that’s hard to beat.

This is the lifestyle property you’ve been waiting for.
