The best homes reflect the lives and passions of those who create them. Unsurprisingly, it can be difficult to find an existing home that feels as though it was made just for you. Prepare to be impressed.
Cohesion between architecture and nature is beautifully expressed in this exceptional residence, where resort-style elegance meets refined contemporary living. Innovative and thoughtfully conceived, the home offers a rare combination of striking design and natural serenity. If living harmoniously with nature is paramount, this is a home created to embrace space, tranquillity and an enhanced sense of everyday wellbeing.
Striking vertical cedar defines the exterior of this bespoke home, while a clever and expansive layout has been thoughtfully planned for effortless, practical living. Impressive materiality, attention to detail and quality craftsmanship are evident throughout. Every decision, from the choice of materials to the relaxed elegance of a natural palette and polished concrete floors, has been made to honour the home's environment. The result is a residence that feels sophisticated yet relaxed, contemporary yet deeply connected to its setting. Anchored to the site through strong architectural elements, the home stretches towards magnificent views of the Brynderwyn Hills.
Beyond the entrance, expansive interiors unfold beneath full-height glazing, drawing the breathtaking scenery into virtually every aspect of the home. The emphasis is on space, light and privacy, creating a calming sense of immersion in the landscape. Large sliding glass doors dissolve the boundary between indoors and out, with living spaces flowing seamlessly onto wraparound terraced decks and offering multiple entertaining areas around the ozone swim spa. Dine around the long table on balmy summer evenings, relax poolside in the sun, or retreat in winter to the sheltered loggia. Every season has its place here, completing an exceptional resort-inspired lifestyle.
Set across approximately 2.4 hectares, the home comprises four bedrooms, a light filled office, and three-and-a-half beautifully appointed bathrooms. The impressive master suite features a voluminous walk-in wardrobe and luxurious ensuite with a calming, spa-like feel, while three additional bedrooms enjoy green outlooks and abundant natural light. Additional accomodation offers privacy and independence within the wider home.
Established native plantings provide an attractive, easy-care environment, while covered stalls, yards and ample grazing add another dimension to the property, making it an impressive proposition for equine enthusiasts.
As coastline gives way to countryside, it is easy to forget that Mangawhai's coastal playground is only around 10 minutes away. The Sanctuary lifestyle also provides access to tennis courts, native bush trails and a playground, while cafes, world renown golf courses, surf beaches and a boat ramp are all within easy reach.
With an inspiring sense of calm, exceptional privacy and a profound connection to the outdoors, this architectural oasis represents a rare opportunity to secure a premium Mangawhai lifestyle property where design, quality and nature align beautifully. I look forward to introducing you to your luxury haven. Call today.
