Perched in one of Herald Island’s most coveted waterfront positions, 90 The Terrace offers a lifestyle of privacy, sophistication, and seamless connection to the water. Complete with a high spec studio, your own jetty and boat ramp, each day begins with the soft glow of sunrise over the harbour, view of the quiet lapping of water at the jetty, and the promise of effortless outdoor living. Morning coffee here becomes a ritual, a moment to breathe in the expansive bay vistas, while evenings are framed by sunsets that transform the water into liquid gold.

Lower-level guest bedrooms feature separate entrances, providing independence and privacy for extended family, guests, or evolving lifestyle needs, while the open-plan kitchen, and outdoor entertaining spaces flow naturally for effortless hosting.
At the heart of the home, the main kitchen and elevated entertaining area capture sweeping water views, making every meal, gathering, or quiet moment a connection to the harbour. Titanium Gold polished natural granite, bespoke cabinetry by a leading Kiwi artisan, and solid oak timber flooring combine warmth, texture, and timeless elegance throughout the main residence, reflecting careful craftsmanship and understated luxury.
The master suite, positioned at the top level, opens to panoramic vistas — a private sanctuary where mornings, evenings, and moonlit nights invite reflection, meditation, and serenity, fully embracing the changing moods of the water.
For those who love the outdoors, this property is a dream: a green and net zone at the rear of the house overlooks the water, while the private jetty and boat ramp allow children and family to launch boats, fish for snapper or kingfish, or enjoy kayaking directly from home.
