House And Land For Sale in Thames, Coromandel Penninsula New Zealand Your Own Private Castle Asking Price: $760,000 NZD (Negotiable) Located in a lush private valley, surrounded by native bush and trekking paths, is a lifestyle property unique in all of New Zealand.
The castle was designed and built according to the scientific principles of bio-architecture, creating a quiet, healthy and inspiring ambiance. Dimensions, height and ventilation were calculated according to concepts that consider the house as a biological micro-climate which responds to the needs of the human body. The property is especially well-suited for artists, writers, musicians, and anyone involved in creative pursuits.
No expense was spared in creating an authentic medieval look and feel with very high ceilings, wooden joinery, elegant wrought iron fittings on all windows and doors, Macrocarpa wood kitchen cabinets, medieval doors and carved Tudor beams. (This tree is one of the cypress family and its perfume produces a strong effect of concentration and relaxation on body and mind.)
The house features 2 storeys with 3 extra large bedrooms with walk-in wardrobes, a main bathroom with spa tub and slate tiles, a second toilet, spacious lounge room, exquisite kitchen, dining room, laundry room, separate garage, and a 60 square metre roof deck off the master bedroom that is elevated and protected by castle ramparts. The first floor is insulated with special materials to reduce long-waves and is wired with a central switch that shuts off electric power at night to avoid continual exposure to electromagnetic stress. Set on approximately 1 acre of gently undulating lawn and orchard with 25 established fruit trees, this property offers simple luxury full of ambiance and character.
Only 2 minutes from Thames shopping centre and schools and few minutes from the beaches, but still very private, the property offers a truly unique and versatile lifestyle opportunity for anyone interested in striking building design with a particular emphasis on bio-architecture.
