The fabulous combination of a sweeping 6 hectares in formal gardens and fenced paddocks of waterfront land with a large family home positioned so close to beaches, cycle trails and the vibrant Matakana Village make this a very appealing and unique lifestyle opportunity.
A huge amount of thought and energy has gone into the expansive park like grounds with the inclusion of an all-weather tennis and netball court, a tiled and heated 22m pool, a horse arena that doubles as a helicopter pad, a lush garden maze for the kids plus a substantial orchard for all season eating. In summer months, a cricket pitch is prepared on the front lawn for frequent games with family and friends, with the waterfront providing the place to cool off or to learn to sail, kayak, windsurf, kitesurf or paddleboard
The remainder of the 6 hectares has been fenced for stock or horses with the artesian well water supply feeding the water troughs and providing a uniquely reliable supply to the house and pool in the long dry months
The two storey home has been improved and updated by the current owners whilst still retaining the character and flow of the original villa complete with polished timber floors. There is plenty of scope to further open up the layout to today's contemporary style if desired, the back bone of the home stands well in today's standards with upgraded insulation and roofing, a full security system, new bathrooms, a water filtration plant, central heating plus external copper spouting and renewed wiring.
Situated between Matakana and Omaha, Jones Road offers the best of our area with lush peat soil, complete peace and privacy and a short cycle on the Matakana/Point Wells/Omaha bike trail for when you're ready to reconnect with the world, and a very short drive to Omaha Beach when the surf is up.
