Overview

Welcome to Paradise!

What would you pay for a piece of paradise? Now offered by Deadline Sale, with motivated vendors who have secured their next move. This private, sun-soaked retreat makes an impression on every level, from the magnificent views across the Waimea Inlet to Rabbit Island to the undeniable sense of calm the moment you arrive. Architecturally designed to sit effortlessly within its natural surroundings, the home places strong emphasis on sustainability, efficiency and connection to the landscape. Thoughtfully planned plantings enhance biodiversity, creating a haven for birds and bees and deepening the home’s sense of tranquillity. Flooded with natural light, this impressive contemporary residence enjoys a north-west aspect across the living areas, kitchen and bedrooms. These spaces flow seamlessly onto expansive kwila decking — the perfect place to soak up sunshine, birdsong and the ever-changing outlook. Clad in Canadian cedar, the home showcases beautiful American oak flooring, plywood ceilings, a solid oak kitchen bench and a collection of carefully curated design details that elevate everyday living. Entertaining is effortless here. The well-appointed kitchen and exceptional indoor–outdoor flow create a natural gathering space for family and friends. Two of the four bedrooms feature sliding walls, offering flexibility for working from home, extended living or guest accommodation. Year-round comfort is assured with a free-standing wood fire, two heat pumps, a heat transfer system, full insulation, and the added benefit of a 7kW solar system with battery storage — delivering impressive energy efficiency, reduced power costs and greater self-sufficiency. Located on tightly held Research Orchard Road, just 10 minutes to Richmond or a scenic drive to Mapua, homes in this position are rarely available — and seldom offered with such clear motivation to sell. Your dream home in your dream location awaits. Call Chris or Tracey today to secure a private inspection. Deadline Sale closes Wednesday, 25th March 2026 at 4 pm.
