Rarely does a home strike such a perfect chord between old-world European charm and uncompromising modern Kiwi craftsmanship. Set behind private gates on two park-like acres, this French-inspired sanctuary is more than a residence, it is a legacy estate.
The home unfolds with an effortless sense of scale. A grand entrance leads to the heart of the residence, a farmhouse-style kitchen rich in natural timber that flows into sun-drenched living areas. For cooler evenings, the separate lounge, anchored by a large open fireplace, offers the ultimate sanctuary for relaxation.
Commissioned by its original English owners, no detail was spared in the pursuit of permanence. Constructed using the pre-insulated Firth HotBloc system and finished in a solid cement render, the home offers a level of thermal mass and "quiet luxury" rarely found. This is a fortress of comfort meticulously designed to remain cool during Puhoi summers while radiating warmth long after the sun sets.
The Highlights: Indoor-Outdoor Mastery: A sprawling alfresco deck with an automated louvre roof ensures the "long lunch" continues regardless of the New Zealand weather.
The Grounds: Over two acres of private paradise featuring a charming olive grove, mature native trees and manicured lawns.
Versatile Living: A generous ground-floor master suite offers the convenience of single-level living, while the upper floor reveals an expansive "everything room" perfect as a cinema, library or high-end home office.
The Essentials: Four double bedrooms, three bathrooms (including a large ensuite), internal double garaging a dedicated workshop and abundant storage throughout.
In Puhoi, neighbours aren't just people next door, they’re friends you meet for a craft beer at the iconic Puhoi Pub or a catch up at the General Store. Imagine your Thursday nights at the local sports club, a true community hub where the kids can run barefoot and safe on the grass while you unwind and socialise.
It’s the kind of place where life slows down the moment you turn off the main road. While the shopping and bustle of Warkworth, Orewa and Silverdale are all within an easy 15-20 minute commute, coming home feels like retreating to a private world of your own.
Deadline Sale (if not sold prior) Friday 17th of April at 4pm Barfoot & Thompson Warkworth
