95 Queens Drive, Oneroa

The view over Auckland’s Huaraki Gulf from Puffin Hill will evoke images of Capri, the Riviera, Mykonos and a dozen other glorious places. Situated in a prime location on Waiheke Island, just a 40 minute ferry ride from Downtown Auckand, Waiheke has been described by both Vogue and Conde Nast as the "Hamptons of New Zealand." Puffin Hill, an ideal year round escape, is surrounded by sub-tropical gardens and a knockout view of the Gulf from the 'winter lounge' (complete with working fireplace) and the main lounge with its open kitchen and dining area. Enjoy the view as, fueled by wine from a local vineyard, you prepare dinner, perhaps with veggies from your own, on site greenhouse. Or maybe as you get ready to go out for dinner in Oneroa Village or at one of the Island’s many wineries. This penthouse-like coastal residence will fit more than one brief, as it boasts privacy, space and outdoor living on both levels. Children may clamber from the bottom of the garden onto the Te Aroha Track to Hekerua Bay, while adults enjoy approaching twilight from one of the several outdoor seating venues. Waiheke’s most favored beaches Oneroa, Palm Beach and Onetangi are just minutes away. Situated close to Enclosure, Sandy and Hekerua Bay coves, with drive-to-door access and a bus to the ferry, beaches and shopping with a stop just a stone’s throw away - this is among the top echelon of Northern Bays locations. Our clients offer this up “all-in” (most chattels included) for move-in ease, or as an “all-out” scenario. Your choice. We encourage overseas parties to investigate, with us, pathways to purchase - Puffin Hill offers a golden opportunity.
