One side of the house watches the world go by. Boats leave their berths. Paddleboarders cross the water. Light moves across the marina and the outlook changes with the weather. Turn in the other direction and you are in an entirely private world of limestone, water and tropical planting - a heated magnesium pool, spa and cabana hidden from the street and sheltered from view. That contrast is at the heart of The Quay. Completed in 2025, the 607m² residence was designed by Architecture HDT and constructed by Gemco as a contemporary coastal courtyard house. Its scale is substantial, but scale alone doesn't explain it. The architecture moves between outlook and retreat, entertaining and privacy, activity and escape. Precast concrete and structural steel give the house its permanence. Aluminium, New Zealand limestone and glass shape the exterior, while inside, copper, natural stone, American black walnut, timber ceilings and extensive glazing soften the architecture and add warmth. The principal living level sits above the marina. Kitchen, dining and living spaces take in life on the water while decks on both sides of the house allow you to follow the sun - marina on one side, pool courtyard on the other. The kitchen island will probably be where people end up, regardless of where you intended them to sit. It anchors a kitchen designed as much for people as cooking, supported by a scullery and temperature-controlled wine cellar. Nearby, a dedicated wellness retreat means steam, cold water and recovery rituals need not involve leaving home. The main bedroom and guest suite are also positioned on this upper level. Downstairs, the house changes character again. A second full kitchen, living room and laundry allow this level to function with genuine independence for adult children, extended family, guests or live-in support. Two further bedroom suites sit alongside the gallery, entry and three-car garaging. Then there is the courtyard. French limestone paving surrounds the magnesium pool and inground spa. Tropical planting creates enclosure, an outdoor copper shower adds another layer, and the cabana - complete with copper bar and featuring a marble bar top - makes the pool area somewhere to spend from the afternoon through to late evening rather than simply somewhere to swim. An eight-person lift connects the levels, while smart technology, solar and battery storage, underfloor heating, ducted heating and cooling and acoustic glazing quietly take care of much of the practical work behind the scenes. The Quay gives you two very different ways of living in one remarkable place. Outward to the water. Inward to complete privacy. Key Features: 607m² residence completed in 2025 Architecture HDT design; constructed by Gemco Four bedroom suites and four bathrooms Three living areas Marina outlook Private courtyard with heated magnesium pool and inground spa Poolside cabana Main kitchen, scullery and temperature-controlled wine cellar Second kitchen, living and laundry downstairs Dedicated wellness retreat with steam room and copper cold plunge showers Eight-person lift Three-car garaging and dual gated access Underfloor and ducted heating and cooling Smart-home technology Solar and battery storage Due to the calibre and value of this property, viewings will be by private appointment.

Scale to gather. Space to retreat.  There are houses designed around rooms, and houses designed around the way people actually live.  At 20 Aintree Road, breakfast can be happening in one part of the house while somebody works behind a closed office door, teenagers disappear to another living room and weekend guests have somewhere that feels properly their own.  Later, everyone finds their way back together - around the kitchen, outside on the terrace or beside the pool.  That ease is probably the thing you notice least on a floor plan, yet it is one of this home's greatest strengths. Set privately across 1.66 hectares in an established Havelock North lifestyle location, The Enclave offers approximately 477m² of living with the scale for a full house without requiring everyone to live on top of one another. Four bedrooms, four bathrooms, three living spaces and a separate office give different generations, guests and family members genuine separation when they want it.  Designed by Fat Parrot Architecture and built by Trevor Mossman, the predominantly concrete-block home has a reassuring solidity to it. Over the past twelve months it has also undergone a substantial programme of improvements, bringing a more current finish and feel while retaining the scale and substance that made the house compelling in the first place.  New carpet and floor coverings, refreshed bathrooms, updated lighting, interior and exterior paint, new curtains and blinds and refreshed aluminium joinery have collectively changed the way the home presents and feels.  Outside, the property becomes its own private environment.  Established planting surrounds terraces, lawns, the saltwater infinity pool and spa. There is room for children, dogs, visitors and long lunches without feeling overlooked or contained. The pool is an obvious attraction in summer, but its greater value is as part of a property where much of family life can happen at home.  Technology and infrastructure are equally well resolved, including automated irrigation, Starlink internet, Control4 audio, security systems, multiple water supplies with filtration, air conditioning, heat pumps and gas fires.  The Enclave isn't simply a large house on a lifestyle block.  Its luxury is having space to be together - and space not to be.  Key features  • Approximately 477m² residence on 1.66 hectares  • Four bedrooms and four bathrooms, including two ensuites  • Three living spaces providing excellent separation  • Separate office  • Designed by Fat Parrot Architecture and built by Trevor Mossman  • Predominantly concrete-block construction with solid plaster finish  • Significant interior and exterior improvements completed over the past twelve months  • Generous garaging and storage  • Saltwater infinity pool and spa  • Automated irrigation  • Multiple water supplies with filtration  • Starlink internet  • Control4 audio and smart security  • Heating and cooling throughout  A comprehensive property information pack is available, including the LIM, building report, Certificate of Title and floor plans is available by copying this link into your browser - https://bit.ly/TheEnclave20AintreeRoad  Method of Sale: By Negotiation

A stunning Contemporary Farm House respectfully settled into the landscape atop a limited number of desirable homes in the exclusive Mana Ridge lifestyle enclave. New in 2018 from the drawing board of Adam Taylor, this home achieves a remarkable balance of beautiful, practical, and high-performance design, with its timeless quality elements, separation of living and sleeping wings, and passive design principles. Only the best fittings, fixtures, and providers were selected for inclusion in this build, including Halliday + Baillie, Verkart, Blackmores, James Dunlop, Plumbline, Anchor Ceramics, and Twill Interiors, to name just a few.

There is a particular rhythm to life on the north shore of Lake Hayes. A morning lap of the loop track, coffee in Arrowtown just six minutes away. An afternoon admiring - or even out on - the water; a drive or e-bike through Gibbston for a bottle of Pinot. All the while, the Remarkables, Crown Range, and Coronet Peak sit quietly around you, waiting for your adventurous side to come out and play. 42 Central Park Avenue sits within this setting, positioned on a 4,000sqm lifestyle lot in one of the basin’s most tightly held pockets. The four-bedroom home is a single-level pavilion designed by architect M J Wyatt, originally completed in 1998. Under the current owners, it has just undergone a comprehensive 2025-2026 refit, with close to a million dollars invested. Highlights include a bespoke Formatt kitchen in warm charcoal timber with Corian benchtops, entirely new bathrooms, Haro engineered oak flooring through the living wing, and 60oz Feltex wool carpet in the bedrooms. A multi-zone Daikin VRV ducted heat pump system has been added, while the original fireplace remains for atmosphere. Outside, the northern park-like garden has been opened up around a new 10m x 4m sprayed concrete pool, finished with glass and steel fencing, striking sandstone paving, and new planting that integrates with established trees and the existing fruit orchard. A height covenant on the southern boundary protects the outlook to the lake and the Remarkables beyond. Lake Hayes is increasingly recognised as an address that holds its value. Property changes hands slowly here; the lake and loop track are a central part of daily life, and this private cul-de-sac lane means traffic is non-existent. With Arrowtown just six minutes away, Queenstown Airport 10-15, and the CBD not much further, this is a setting that rarely comes to market, with a stylishly renovated home ready for part or full-time living.
