A Private Country Estate in Waimauku
Down a private laneway on one of Waimauku's most beloved roads, 115 Taylor Road sits on a 1 ha (more or less) park-like setting, covenanted with Kauri dotted native bush, alive with birdsong and the gentle rhythm of country life. There is something about this place that stills you the moment you arrive - a stillness that is increasingly rare and increasingly sought after.
Designed by renowned NZ architect Brent Hulena, a double-door entrance opens into a soaring double-height foyer, abundant in natural light and utterly welcoming. The sprawling 220 s qm (approximately) home is complemented by around 115 s qm of covered wraparound decking and eaves, creating exceptional indoor-outdoor flow and multiple spaces to relax, entertain, and enjoy the surrounding landscape. A separate carport, gym, and workshop total approximately 52 s qm, along with ample off-street parking. Four bedrooms and two and a half bathrooms sit in their own wing, while a separate room near the entrance offers flexibility for a home office, hobby room, or fifth bedroom. Numerous living zones sit to the right, and a wraparound covered veranda gazes over manicured lawns to distant rolling hills straight ahead.
The updated kitchen, elegantly tiled family bathroom, powder room, double-glazed windows, and skylights throughout the entry and living zones all speak to the care and consideration that has gone into this home by the current owners of 16 years. The heated pool positioned to capture the northern sun is nothing short of magical. An outdoor log fireplace, glass balustrades, and endless sky complete a setting made for those who love to live beautifully outdoors.
The master suite is a true retreat. An open fireplace, walk-in robe, ensuite, and doors opening directly to the veranda where your outdoor bath awaits. At the end of a long day, you can soak not just in the bath, but in the views. This is what it feels like to live a true eat, pray, love life.
A separate family room, HRV, ducted heating/cooling, carport with workshop and office or gym, petanque pitch, vegetable beds, and established fruit trees complete this remarkable offering. Waimauku village, award-winning vineyards, and a warm and welcoming community are all just minutes away - the perfect balance of seclusion and connection.
