195A Awaawaroa Road, Waiheke Island

Imagine the magic of leaving the crowds behind and driving through our clean green countryside and quickly reaching one of Waiheke's best vineyards as the neighbour. Looking over the gorgeous bay is the spell binding Kahu i Rangi. Interior designed magnificence amongst native bush with sea views in the distance. This is what Waiheke Island is all about and the dream New Zealand property. Mesmerized upon arrival you will walk through custom made steel gates into your tropical paradise with a 15 metre pond of lushly planted courtyard and sunshine soaring in from above. The home is full of features and timeless splendour, you need to take it slowly to appreciate the beautiful well thought out detail. It is an experience to be here, not just a house. The home is literally built around this tropical paradise, the centre of the home. It comprises four bedrooms, three with en-suites and the master with large walk-in wardrobe, shower with views down the valley and its own spacious office; all drenched in splendid window treatments throughout in the finest European textiles available. Absolutely spoilt for choice is a diverse range of both private and shared living spaces; indoors and out. There is the most amazing terraced loggia with one of three wood fires that you step down into and you are engulfed by incredible views over the property and neighbouring vineyard with the sea as your final vision. Four-car garaging and a workshop are beneath the guest wing and the property could easily suit Bed and Breakfast or luxury lodge style accommodation - much needed in the bay. It also has its own native bush and walks. This is truly a unique home with spell-binding views over neighbouring Poderi Crisci award-winning vineyard, restaurant and the Awaawaroa Valley with Auckland Harbour and city in the distance - (which is a mere hour plus away by car and ferry or some eight minutes by helicopter). The moment you enter Kahu i Rangi you will be spell-bound. ...
