About this property

STUNNING COASTAL HOLIDAY HOME! Glorious Sea Views and Pool in the Bay of Islands

DREAM COASTAL HOLIDAY HOME - AVAILABLE FOR CHRISTMAS AND NEW YEAR 2025/26!

Stunning and spacious holiday home in a spectacular north facing location with 7 bedrooms, 5 bathrooms, gorgeous infinity pool, private Pool House and sweeping sea views over Takou Bay.

Our beautiful coastal home is an ideal base for a luxurious and relaxing escape with family and friends, only 20 minutes from Kerikeri and the beautiful Bay of Islands.

Enjoy endless entertainment for everyone in the stunning Infinity Pool; relax in our private Pool House and landscaped gardens; soak up the sun looking out to sea from the expansive north facing decks; dine alfresco under starlit night skies, or enjoy a relaxing soak in the alfresco claw foot bath. For those looking for more adventures, borrow a kayak or canoe and fishing rods from the Boat House. Explore the Takou River and paddle downstream to the stunning and deserted sandy beaches at Takou Bay.

Surrounded by our 150 acre farm, your privacy is guaranteed. Explore the farm discovering our magical glow worms, the pristine Takou River, ideal for swimming, kayaking and fishing, and beautiful waterfalls, pastures and native bush.

Beautifully crafted interiors feature polished timber floors, cedar joinery, hand-made rugs, kilims and New Zealand art work. Full length doors and windows open from every room onto expansive north-facing sun decks taking in the spectacular sea views. A double height formal living room with cathedral ceilings, open fire place, hand-crafted formal staircase and mezzanine balcony forms the centre piece of this unique home. Folding glass doors separate a second family living area with cosy wood burner and large modern open plan kitchen, perfect for entertaining friends and family. 7 spacious and beautiful bedrooms, all have stunning north facing views, polished timber floors, beautiful linens and fabrics. The 5 modern spacious bathrooms feature walk in showers, luxurious iron baths and beautiful mosaics.

Peace, seclusion and tranquility abound - beautiful river and sea views, secluded swimming, 150 acres of farmland, walks, sub-tropical gardens, private jetty, fishing, kayaks, and access to the beautiful deserted sandy beaches at Takou Bay.

The property is centrally located to explore the wider Bay of Islands, yet hidden away from the hustle and bustle. Enjoy the flourishing birdlife; wander enchanted gardens and riverside walks, paddle to Takou Bay; relax, refresh and romance - or bask in the bliss of doing absolutely nothing.
