Steeped in local history, this enchanting homestead was originally built circa 1900 for the town's resident doctor. Occupying what is arguably the finest position on this side of the Whangaroa Harbour, it commands unique, sweeping views of the harbour's full expanse.
Opportunities to secure a villa with such a rich past, so meticulously maintained, are exceptionally rare. Arriving at the property, you are immediately struck by a sense of timeless grandeur and a profound peacefulness, with breathtaking water views unfolding before you.
Inside, the character of the home shines through its high-stud ceilings and the warm, natural timbers of Kauri and Rimu. The layout has been thoughtfully updated to a semi-open plan, creating a spacious and inviting living area. An enclosed sun porch at the front of the home provides a perfect retreat, opening out to a large deck designed for entertaining and soaking in the scenery.
The home is supported by a strong foundation, with exterior footings having been replaced to ensure its legacy for generations to come. Practicality is also catered for with an oversized double garage and workshop, raised garden beds, an orchard, native plantings, and a woodshed.
For lovers of historic homes with grand proportions, this is a must-see. Its prime location offers close proximity to the marina, sports fishing club, and restaurant. With moorings potentially available, you could soon be gazing down upon your own launch from the deck of this truly remarkable property.
