Sanctuary by the sea

Looking for the perfect nest? This stunning treetop property is for you. It really is the most magical home, offering unparalleled privacy, space and charm - but also an incredible location, high on the hill above Whangateau Harbour, with a birds eye view across to Point Wells. Wonderfully secluded and set back from the road, yet still only a quick stroll to the reserve and beachfront, you're in nature's playground here!

Best of all, the home itself is a delight. Aptly named 'The Tree House', it's light, bright and lovingly maintained, with three bedrooms plus an office, two bathrooms, an open-plan kitchen, dining and lounge area (with wood burner), inviting outdoor decks, and a large garage and workshop, all split over four levels. At the top is the master bedroom, where you can perch for hours looking out over the canopy, enjoying in the beauty and wonder that surrounds you. Mature trees, lush native bush and easy-care, established gardens - the most idyllic spot to unwind.

Regardless of whether you are seeking a permanent change of pace or a weekend escape, The Tree House delivers on all levels. A world away, but within easy distance is Warkworth township, Matakana Village and a little further on, Leigh, with all that the region has to offer. Some of the country's best boating and fishing spots, Goat Island Marine Reserve, nearby surf beaches (Omaha, Tawharanui, and Pakiri), plus vineyards, farmers markets, boutique and vintage shopping, cafés, restaurants and a cinema. Move in, and enjoy.
