Villa Pauanui (New Zealand)

Where Native Bush Meets the Sea Set on an impressive 4,010 sq m (more or less) of pristine native bush, this exceptional Pauanui property delivers the ultimate in privacy, tranquility, and coastal living. Beautifully obscured from view and perfectly positioned, it offers a rare combination of seclusion, abundant sunshine, and stunning outlooks - all just moments from the beach. At the heart of the home, the open-plan living and dining area with high ceilings creates a wonderful sense of space and light, connecting seamlessly with the outdoors through full-width bi-fold doors that open onto an expansive, sun-soaked deck. From this elevated vantage point, captivating views extend across the vibrant bush canopy to Pauanui beach - an ever-changing panorama that is both peaceful and inspiring. The surrounding native bush is alive with birdsong, providing a daily connection to nature and enhancing the sense of escape. Native birdlife such as Tūī and Kiwi are amongst the bush. The home comprises three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a powder room and a double garage. Surrounded by nature and designed for easy, relaxed living, it promises comfort, privacy, and a sense of exclusivity that is increasingly difficult to obtain. Adding to its appeal, the property is within easy walking distance of the Grand Mercure Puka Park Resort and Restaurant, as well as the golden sands of Pauanui Beach (around 10 minutes’ walk), offering the perfect balance of seclusion and convenience. Despite its tranquil setting, the property is also ideally positioned within approximately a two-hour drive of Auckland, Tauranga, and the wider Waikato region, making it an accessible retreat for weekend escapes or permanent living. Properties of this scale and setting are seldom available, presenting a prime opportunity to secure a private bush-clad haven with ocean outlooks in one of Pauanui’s most desirable locations.
