Built in 1908 and relocated in 2003, this charming villa brings the assurance of traditional craftsmanship together with the confidence of modern renewal. Rusticated weatherboards, generous proportions and enduring bones set the tone, while considered upgrades have been introduced with modern living firmly in mind.



Original Kauri and Rimu features including ceilings, wide floorboards, detailed skirtings and covings reflect the materials and detailing of their era. Reproduction switches and the original coloured-glass back door ensure the home’s soul remains intact.



Where heritage homes often ask for compromise, this one does not. Insulation throughout, thick underlay and central heating system deliver reliable warmth, alchemising character from admiration into quiet luxury - supported by comprehensive rewiring, replumbing and a recently renewed roof.



Where meals, movement and conversation intersect, the kitchen has been reworked with intelligence. A 2021 bespoke design pairs classic form with modern performance: granite benchtops with subtle quartz flecks, soft-close cabinetry, clever storage solutions, a Miele integrated dishwasher and a Falcon five-burner oven set beneath a crafted mantle. Trifold timber windows open directly to the deck, dissolving the boundary between inside and out.



Living and dining spaces are expansive and composed, framed by stained native timber ceilings and generous openings. The decorative fireplace gives the living room a quiet point of focus, while French doors open to a substantial entertainer’s deck that wraps to the front and greets guests as they arrive. Hundreds have gathered here beneath a large marquee - which will remain, ready for the next chapter.



Four well-proportioned bedrooms provide flexibility for families, guests or working from home. The master suite offers a calm retreat with ensuite, tiled shower and a walk-in robe with built-in shelving. Vintage proportions paired with contemporary ease.



Bathrooms continue the conversation between past and present, defined by the juxtaposition of period elements - a clawfoot bath and pull-chain WC - set against tiled showers and contemporary finishes, resolved without drama.



Beyond the main living area, the home continues to reveal its depth. A separate laundry offers future scullery potential, while a third WC adds everyday practicality.



Outside, established fruit trees, raised vegetable gardens and a fully fenced section create a private, productive setting. A detached double garage with workshop, cavernous off-street capable of housing boat or motorhome comfortably and a zoned gate system bring structure and order to daily life.



Set in a Raumati cul-de-sac, a short drive from the beach, village and exceptional schools, this is a home that honours where it came from — and understands how we live now.



A home with history — and a future that feels easy.
