This beautifully restored Kauri villa has been carefully preserved and modernised, offering a relaxed coastal experience ideal for families and friends wanting true privacy and direct access to the water. The Space: The villa brings together the character of an original Kauri homestead with the comfort of a spacious, coastal retreat. Wraparound covered decks frame the home, creating multiple outdoor spots to sit, read, or watch the tide move across the bay. A porch swing sits along the veranda, a favourite place for guests of all ages to unwind. Outdoor seating areas, a BBQ zone, and an outdoor shower make the property feel connected to the beach in every direction. Inside, the home is warm and welcoming, with timber floors, comfortable furnishings, and wide windows framing the garden and sea beyond. The large 1970s kitchen is fully equipped and includes a classic wood-burning stove, with easy access to the dining and sunroom area, a bright space for long meals and slow mornings. The main lounge faces directly toward the water and is set up for relaxed evenings with books, games, and a flat-screen TV for rainy days or slow nights in. The bedrooms are spread throughout the home, offering generous space for families, groups, or mixed sleeping arrangements, with a combination of superking, king, queen, bunk, and trundler setups ideal for larger groups. Large lawns, mature trees, and coastal pathways connect the home to the beach, creating a calm and expansive environment that feels completely private.
