78 Great Barrier Road, Oneroa, Waiheke Island

Sublime summers in Sandy Bay

This sub-tropical oasis right by secluded Sandy Bay is a Waiheke fantasy made real.
Featuring a contemporary, three-bedroom Ron Stevenson home with separate guest house, the buildings sit in harmony on the flat, private, corner site just steps away from your morning swim.
The clever use of glass throughout the architecturally designed house provides a feeling of light and air - and a sense you could be floating by the bay.
It truly is a heavenly haven, as you gaze out at the waves lapping against the rocks across the shore.
The huge living space features a modern kitchen with breakfast bar and plenty of room for dining and lounging.
Its copious doors lead out to a massive concrete patio that cantilevers artfully over the pretty creek on one side, and to a huge entertaining patio around the corner.
At the back of the main floor there is a good-sized separate laundry, a bedroom/study and a powder room while, upstairs, is a glorious retreat with fabulous sea views.
Here, a lofty lounge area with window seat opens to decks either side.
These lovely open-air habitats link back inside to two sizeable double bedrooms, both enjoying en-suite bathrooms with underfloor heating.
The master suite also features a walk-through wardrobe, walk-in shower and double vanity.
This beautiful home connects seamlessly outside to the patios and pathways that surround it.
Across the way, the two-bedroom guest accommodation has a lounge area with kitchenette, a bathroom with shower, and a massive outdoor courtyard for entertaining.
It also houses a huge double garage, with plenty of flat parking outside for the cars, the boat or the Sealegs, which can be launched just metres away.
The carefully considered plantings right around the section pay tribute to its sub-tropical location, with mature nikau, citrus, hibiscus and even olives surrounding the shell pathways and pavers.
This stunning property is also fully fenced, with an outdoor shower and lovely mature hedges for privacy.
