Perched above Waipu Cove on just over a hectare of landscaped grounds, grazing and mature native bush, this is a home built the way few are anymore - precast concrete tilt-panel construction on a steel frame, engineered to shrug off the coastal climate, built to be handed down through generations. A home with concrete strength and an ocean soul. Inside, the quality carries through. Negative-detailed ply ceilings lift the living spaces, while the clever two-level design with mezzanine family room captures light and view from every angle. Expansive glazing frames a panorama that genuinely stops people mid-sentence: the full sweep of Bream Bay, from Whangarei Heads across to Taranga and the Hen and Chickens Islands, with the surf line of Waipu Cove tracing the shore below. Three bedrooms, a dedicated office, and a master suite with walk-in wardrobe and ensuite give the layout real flexibility, while the generous deck flows off the living areas - the natural spot for long summer evenings watching the light change over the water. The kitchen is tidy and perfectly functional as it stands, and here lies the opportunity: with the office sitting conveniently alongside, there's obvious potential to reimagine this corner of the home - think modern kitchen with scullery or butler's pantry - and add real value to a home that's solid to the core. Move in and enjoy it now, or put your own stamp on it over time; either way, the fundamentals are done and done well. Outside is where the property works its quiet magic. Established, low-maintenance gardens wrap around the house, fruit trees dot the grounds, and the surrounding mature native bush keeps the air alive with birdsong. There is a genuine tranquillity here, the kind that makes visitors drop their shoulders the moment they step out of the car. Sheep graze the paddock, and a separate cabin offers options for guests, hobbies or a studio. And then there's the beach. Roughly 2km from the ocean, with the Cove Road cycleway just down the road, it's an easy pedal to Waipu Cove - crowned NZ Herald's Best Beach two years running - or a scenic ride the other way into Waipu township for its cafés, shops and famous Scottish heritage. Homes of this build quality, in this position, with this outlook, rarely come to market. Don't watch this one go to someone else - call today to arrange your private viewing.

Own the land. Own the location. Hold the future. Queenstown continues to evolve at an extraordinary pace, and opportunities to secure substantial freehold land in the heart of the town are becoming increasingly rare. 7 Brisbane Street is one of them. Set on 713 sq m within a high-density zoned environment, this exceptional property combines a four-bedroom, three-bathroom residence with something considerably harder to acquire: a significant landholding in central Queenstown. Privately positioned yet remarkably close to the centre of town, the property offers the rare ability to enjoy the home today, while holding an asset with compelling long-term potential. For the owner-occupier, it is an exceptional Queenstown home in an enviable location. For the investor, it is a substantial freehold holding in one of New Zealand's most tightly held and internationally recognised resort destinations. For those looking further ahead, the site's high-density zoning provides the opportunity to consider its future potential as Queenstown continues to grow. The opportunity is not simply to buy a house in Queenstown. It is to secure a substantial piece of central Queenstown. Properties offering this combination of land, location, scale, privacy and future potential are exceptionally difficult to replace. And once they are gone, they are gone. 7 Brisbane Street. Inner Queenstown. Buy the location once. Hold the future. For further information or to arrange a private viewing, please contact us.
