Greta here, the vendor of the coastal garden sanctuary.
I'm selling as I am beginning a whole new life chapter and am retraining as a kindy teacher. I'm wanting to begin this new journey as soon as possible and would love to pass on this exceptional property to its next owners. Please come and have a look if you have interest in living just moments from the beach, all day sun, a warm cosy home and productive orchard and garden. My home is available again as the previous offer was not able to be completed by the purchasers.
Positioned in the sought-after southern end of Raumati South, just one block from the coastline, this home sits quietly at the base of a gentle valley. Sheltered from prevailing winds and oriented for full-day sun, it forms its own natural microclimate warm, protected, and distinctly calm.
From here, the rhythm of coastal living is right on your doorstep. A short walk takes you to the beach for morning swims, afternoon boogie boarding, or casting a line as the sun drops. The Raumati South boat launch is close by for those drawn to the water, while days can just as easily be spent sea kayaking along the coast.
Equally, the lifestyle extends inland. Tennis Court Road Park offers space for everyday living playgrounds for the kids, tennis or pickleball on the courts, a basketball hoop, and open fields to run and play. Nearby, Queen Elizabeth Park opens up a network of cycle trails and wide-open spaces to explore.
Originally a 1980s coastal retreat, the home has evolved significantly through thoughtful, hands-on care. Spaces have been opened, light welcomed in, and the connection between home and land strengthened.
The living areas face north and west, allowing sunlight to move through the home from morning to evening. At its centre, the open plan living space gathers around a newly installed fireplace creating a natural place to come together. The modern kitchen connects easily to the outdoors, supporting both everyday living and the seasonal rhythm of growing and sharing food.
Three double bedrooms offer flexibility, each capturing a different aspect of light, while a separate upper-level studio retreat provides space to create, work, or step away.
The grounds are layered and purposeful a reflection of a passionate gardener’s vision. An emerging orchard showcases 15 different varieties of fruit trees including peach, pear, plum, nectarine, orange and apple. Medicinal planting, edible gardens, and flowers for picking are all woven through the landscape. It’s a garden that feels both established and still evolving shaped over time, with room to continue growing.
Life here follows a quieter rhythm. Mornings begin gently, days unfold in sun-filled spaces, and evenings settle on the deck as warmth lingers.
For those drawn to a more considered way of living where connection to land, sea, and lifestyle matters this is a home that offers both foundation and future.
