luxury seaside house for sale Stillwater, New Zealand

This substantial waterfront family residence, crafted by its current owners, embodies the spirit of New Zealand and the South Pacific with its pitched-roof construction and classic New Zealand coastal influence executed at scale. Perfectly positioned on a 1138m2 (more or less) beachfront site with a coveted North/West aspect, the home is framed by established gardens. The setting is unique as the section comes with its own private boat ramp and riparian rights, making launching your boat effortless. Properties of this calibre are extremely rare and tightly held in Auckland's premium waterfront locations. Designed by award-winning Architect Frans Kamermans and constructed to the highest standard over two years, the home comprises a series of adjoining pavilions, delivering over 500m2 (approx.) of luxurious indoor/outdoor living. The principal living pavilion, with a generous kitchen at its heart, seamlessly opens to both formal and informal living areas onto the expansive lawn and the beach beyond. A centrally positioned pool and deck create a private, sheltered oasis for family enjoyment. The central part of the home houses a three car garage with huge sliding doors that open onto the pool area, transforming it into a versatile space ideal for family fun and entertaining. At the rear of the section is a character-filled boatshed, built in natural timber milled from two Lawson Cypress trees sourced from the South Island. The first floor of this boat-shed pavilion features two sets of built-in double bunks and an area currently used as a gym. The upper level of the main home is thoughtfully arranged as two distinct wings. The master suite is a true retreat, comprising a spacious suite with sweeping views over the harbour, walk through wardrobe, and separate study. Across the central atrium, a separate wing provides dedicated accommodation for family or guests, complete with its own lounge, creating an independent zone to gather while maintaining connection to the heart of the home.
