luxury house with sea view for sale Tairua, New Zealand

Expand your Horizons – Coastal Estate Waiheke Island, New Zealand. Set within an extraordinary natural landscape, a coastal lifestyle property of privacy, scale, serenity and potential. This exceptional coastal estate unfolds as a private world of sea, headland, forest, wetland and open pasture. Your arrival is pure theatre: beyond the gates the vast horizon alive with islands, ever-changing light and the gentle curving sweep of Omaru Bay. 13.93 hectares (more or less), two freehold riparian titles with more than 500 metres of remarkable coastline. The views travel without interruption across the Hauraki Gulf - from Coromandel Peninsula to the sculptural silhouettes of Pōnui, Rotoroa and Pakatoa - while closer at hand, the estate reveals intimate coves, a private beach, mature native forest and shimmering wetland. An expansive home is anchored, embracing and warm, an invitation to slow down and live within this natural landscape. The panoramic views are majestic, land to sea and unobstructed. For those arriving from Auckland, the helipad offers a seamless passage from city to sanctuary in approximately 12 minutes. By boat, the arrival is equally compelling: the approach across clear water toward a shoreline that feels entirely removed from the everyday. The owners have been devoted custodians of this landscape for 25 years. More than 15,000 native trees have been planted, transforming the estate into a richly layered habitat of towering canopy, seemingly just in time for the Kiwi release programme that has introduced breeding pairs to the area. Every part of the property invites a different tempo. Follow the 1.5 km of formed boardwalks and tracks through the native forest. Swim, paddle board and kayak from the beach. Launch Sea Legs from the boatshed and explore the coast at leisure. Slip out to the registered mooring, set a course for the outer islands, and return as the afternoon light turns the water to silver. Then there is the foreshore. Facing west, a beautiful stage for close of day - children race across the grass, the wetland reeds catch the evening glow and the sky deepens from gold to star studded indigo. Smokey, salty, earthy - an ancient alchemy that draws people together. Wild, elegant and utterly unforgettable. With one existing residence across two separate titles, the property presents an invitation to imagine what might come next; an additional home, private guest accommodation - undoubtably inspired architecture will create an enduring legacy. This is a holding of rare presence - a place to retreat, reconnect and create a story that will be told for generations. For Sale Guide to value: interest from NZ $16,000,000.
