Nicely located within the award-winning Boathouse Bay community, this architecturally designed home brings together contemporary coastal style, easy living and the convenience of a genuine lock-and-leave lifestyle. Designed by renowned architect Ken Crosson and drawing inspiration from the simple forms of traditional Kiwi boatsheds, it offers a distinctive take on seaside living – all within an hour of Auckland.
Immaculately presented and thoughtfully arranged over two levels, the home has been designed to make everyday living easy. At its heart is a striking contemporary kitchen equipped with quality Bosch appliances, connecting naturally with the open-plan dining and living areas. Large sliding doors open wide to generous wrap-around decking and low maintainence gardens, creating a private outdoor setting for long lunches, summer entertaining or simply unwinding at the end of the day.
Practicality has been well considered with the automated standalone garage future-proofed with EV charging infrastructure, while an integrated laundry and excellent under-deck and attic storage ensure everything has its place.
Upstairs, three bedrooms include a generous master suite with ensuite and glimpses of the sea. A second double bedroom and a separate study or single bedroom adds valuable flexibility. A well-appointed family bathroom completes the upper level. Double glazing throughout and air conditioning provide year-round comfort.
Beyond the home itself, Boathouse Bay offers something refreshingly different. Shared green spaces, pedestrian pathways and the absence of traditional fencing create an open, connected neighbourhood with a genuine sense of community. The beach is just moments away, while Omaha, Matakana and Brick Bay are all within easy reach – putting swimming, paddleboarding, fishing, vineyards, markets and some of the region’s best dining close at hand.
Stylish, secure and exceptionally easy to enjoy, this is an appealing coastal base for professionals, couples and downsizers, or simply those looking for a beautifully designed retreat they can lock up, leave and return to whenever the coast calls.
