A Waterfront Legacy of Uncompromising Design

Positioned within the tightly held Hoddy Peninsula enclave, this exceptional waterfront residence is a true legacy property – offering an extraordinary blend of architectural sophistication, natural beauty, and uncompromising quality.

Set across more than one acre of exquisitely landscaped, park-like grounds, the home is a striking example of thoughtful design. Cedar cladding and carefully curated architectural elements create a warm, organic aesthetic, while the interiors reflect a no-expense-spared approach to finishes, fixtures, and appliances throughout.

Bathed in all-day sun thanks to its prized north-easterly aspect, the home opens seamlessly to expansive decking that invites both relaxation and entertaining. At its heart, a natural swimming pool – designed in the style of New Zealand wetlands – forms a tranquil focal point, complemented by an outdoor shower and bath. A pétanque court and a charming “she shed” tucked privately at the top of the garden.

Meandering boardwalks wind through lush, established plantings, guiding you around the property and down to the water’s edge where direct access allows for kayaking, paddleboarding, swimming, or simply enjoying the ever-changing coastal landscape.

Inside, the home is anchored by a beautifully crafted kitchen by The Sellers Room, featuring generous counter space, top line appliances and additional refrigeration – perfectly suited to both everyday living and hosting on a grand scale. The open-plan living area flows effortlessly, designed to capture light, views, and connection to the outdoors. Native reclaimed Matai flooring is rich and luxurious – well aged, approximately 150 years.

The accommodations are equally impressive, with a luxurious primary suite providing a private retreat on the upper level, while two additional guest bedrooms are serviced by a full bathroom and separate sitting room – ideal for hosting family and friends in comfort. A loft-style study offers a peaceful, elevated space to work or unwind.

Practicality has not been overlooked, with extensive storage for garden equipment and a generous double garage ensuring ease of living.

All of this, just a short 15-minute drive to Richmond, yet feeling a world away—this is a rare opportunity to secure a waterfront sanctuary of enduring quality in one of the region’s most exclusive coastal settings.
