Beyond the rush of everyday life lies a pocket of pure paradise - 38.6 hectares of elevated native bush, wrapped in birdsong and framed by sweeping sea views that stretch from Port Underwood across Cloudy Bay and out towards Cook Strait to the distant horizon.

Here, mornings begin with golden light rising over the water, and evenings settle into a sky full of stars that will have you saying, where have all these stars come from. Your home stands proudly on its own private clearing - a warm and welcoming two-storey retreat with three bedrooms and two ensuites, designed so that living spills effortlessly outdoors to a wrap-around deck. It's the perfect spot for long lunches, quiet coffees, evenings in the hot tub and those unforgettable "I can't believe we live here" moments.

For the creatives, the collectors, the adventurers - the 22m x 8.5m workshop is the ultimate playground. Room for the boat, the camper, the classic cars… or the tools and space to build something extraordinary. Downstairs, the double garage adds even more practicality for life lived well.

Nature provides the essentials - including your own gravity-fed spring water - and adventure is close at hand. Just minutes from Tom Cane Bay, you can launch the boat and head straight into a world of hidden coves, diving spots, and sensational fishing.

Despite feeling blissfully remote, you're still connected - an easy 25-minute drive from Picton, or 48km to Blenheim when needed. Work from home, escape here on weekends, or make it your everyday sanctuary. This is the kind of property that adapts to your dreams.

Because sometimes you truly can have the best of both worlds.
