Idyllic Waterfront Retreat for Sale in 44 Waimanu Place, Point Wells Matakana, Rodney, New Zealand

As you enter the one of most delightful homes in this growing & sought after area you will be entranced by a series of surprises.

Situated on 1ha (2.5 acres) northeast facing land on the Point Wells waterfront & the Omaha Harbour there is native bush, flat land and wetlands, as well as extensive landscaping around the house. These stunning surroundings are home to a plethora of native, sea and wetland birds - Tui, Woodpigeon, Fantail, Kingfisher and Heron to name just a few.

Designed by Simon Carnachan, the 398 sqm Mediterranean style home opens over a moat into a Japanese entrance to view along the lap pool to the waterviews. It takes your breath away!

The children's wing has 2 bedrooms, a bathroom with 2 vanities and a study/games area. The 3 car garage enters into the gallery, from where the guest room & ensuite open to a peaceful & private Japanese garden. The formal dining & lounge area with an open fire features views of the water & opens onto decks and a large lawn with tropical landscaping.

The master bedroom & ensuite off this area open onto a Wisteria-covered deck & the adjacent bush. Across the pool there is a study, sunroom & family dining/living area with another open fireplace. The kitchen is an entertainer's delight & features a walk-in pantry & has an adjacent laundry. These areas open to the large central courtyard which is sheltered & north facing to enjoy the lap pool.

Seven outdoor areas include the central courtyard adjacent to the pool, decks for dining east & west (depending on the weather) west-facing courtyard & roof deck. The property also features a large boatshed & large garage/workshop area.

Circumstances dictate that the owner must reluctantly sell this waterfront lifestyle block with its unlimited potential as a family home, weekend retreat, bed & breakfast, lodge, homestay or wedding venue.
