Totara Barn Matakana

Totara Barn is an exceptional country residence that enjoys elevated panoramic views over the surrounding Matakana landscape, horse stud and vineyards.
Set on 9.64 hectares (or 23 acres) and enhancing the connection to the magnificent rural aspect, this visually stunning four bedroom architect designed home has mastered the art of position and efficiency.
Complemented with a high specification implement shed, three landscaped ponds, 2.8 hectares of native bush, grazing paddocks and boutique orchards, this private lifestyle opportunity will surprise and delight.
Built to encompass the style of rural New Zealand, the silvered Totara exterior dominates the form and hints at the understated relaxed style and contemporary spaces within. A grand entertaining room with double volume gabled living space and exposed trusses poses a similar statement inside.
Nestled against a backdrop of native bush, the home is oriented so the sun maximises the thermal mass floors. Coupled with a Solar hot water system and intensive insulation and glazing, the home is simultaneously functional and contemporary whilst being big on architectural creativity in an understated manner.
A master wing to the east and a bedroom wing and garage to the west flank a central pavilion that features a magnificent Jetmaster 1200 open wood burning fireplace, bringing comfort, warmth and the ultimate in efficiency and design.
Further statements include an outdoor room with three large vertical pivoting screens, allowing slatted sunlight in whilst providing protection from south westerly winds. A large wet room, dedicated laundry and seductive half mezzanine, add superb functionality to this lifestyle property.
