A legacy home with family at its heart
Iconic in presence and generous in spirit, this tightly-held property has family life at its heart.
Built as a forever home, Number 39 combines a modern feel with old-style build values: enduring materials and craftsmanship that have stood the test of time. Across 358sqm there's a generosity of space in the wide hallways, large bedrooms and beautiful light-filled interiors.
An extensive renovation builds on this property's solid foundation. An open-plan kitchen, dining and living area flows onto broad decks and gardens. Unpretentious and full of soul, this is a home where lasting quality meets the rhythm of those who love to entertain.
For the owners, it has been a sanctuary for raising kids with all the freedom of a Kiwi childhood. Think sprawling lawns for outdoor games across two flat acres and Rainbow Falls and the Waipekakoura River on the doorstep. No wonder leaving feels bittersweet.
Inside, four bedrooms and three bathrooms include a stunning master with ensuite and two walk-in wardrobes, and a second ensuite bedroom in the opposite wing that offers privacy for guests, teens or intergenerational living. Three of the bedrooms open onto the deck and gardens beyond, while a separate lounge provides a quiet retreat.
The substantial boatshed carries the same architectural merit and build values as the home. Launching at Waipapa Landing is just five minutes away, followed by a 15-minute cruise to the Bay of Islands for fishing.
Entertaining is king. Long lazy lunches stretch into evenings under the gazebo, or winter gatherings warmed by the gas fire. Mornings begin with coffee on the deck as the sun rises. Stroll to Rainbow Falls for a dip, with schools and town also within walking distance.
Established gardens and Liquid Ambers bring shelter, privacy and seasonal colour, while two robotic mowers tend to the parklike lawns.
Live and love it your way: pursue hobbies, gather friends and family, shape the gardens or explore adding a pool. Or simply settle in and enjoy a legacy home with an incredible heart.
