INTERNATIONAL TENDER closes Thursday 8th April 2010 at 4.00pm - Kellands Office, 1 Cascade St, Freemans Bay, Auckland

 

A treasured sanctuary of 5.3 hectares of native bush and gardens spilling down to a quiet bay with nothing to hear but Wood Pigeons and the chatter of Tuis.  Less than an hour's drive from Auckland and you arrive at this extraordinary private property with breathtaking views and two guest cottages.

 

The main house, only fifteen years old, offers a choice of beautiful living spaces overlooking the bay and out to Kawau Island. With three fireplaces and central heating it offers all the comfort you want.

 

The well appointed two bedroom garden house is perfect for guests, or with its separate driveway could be permanent accommodation for caretakers. Tucked into the hill is the original cottage, self-contained and reminiscent of a Kiwi bach with three bedrooms.

 

Pop into Matakana 10 minutes away, or by water you can quickly get to Sandspit, or speed over to Kawau Island. If you yearn for your own private world, only once in a lifetime does this type of property become available.
