The Ultimate Home....


Designed as high end lodge or fabulously relaxed family home this stand out property employs classic principles in contemporary expression. Sixteenth century Italian architect, Andrea Palladio, created the formulas for symmetry, perspective and balance which became the benchmark for classic Roman architecture and are demonstrated here. He would be impressed to know that his signature is referenced in a country not even discovered in his lifetime. While the inspiration may be Italian the name, Ataahua Lodge, is taken from the Maori word for beautiful. And beautiful it is. The creators of this home lived on the property before they built and, like Palladio, considered the setting in designing their home. They may have looked outside New Zealand for ideas but the result sits perfectly on its superb 1.0087 hectares (2.3 acres) site right above the fourteenth tee of the Western Bay Links View Golf Course, with the stunning water views beyond. This is a surprisingly intimate home for one covering some 848m2. A beautiful guest room with bathroom is on ground level and separate from the family bedrooms which are upstairs - two children's bedrooms in one wing, office and master bedroom with its own balcony on the other side.\nYou'll love the stairs which curve to an underground wine cellar, tasting room and bar, a delightful custom crafted entertainment option. Part of the separate guest house is currently used as a gym/dance studio, the other, sumptuous accommodation with luxury bathroom. The home not only exudes solidity - deep window surrounds, thick walls, deep set doors, massive fireplace in the lounge - but insulated concrete block construction supports its appearance. Every wall, other than those where plumbing is incorporated, is solid concrete. Hand rendered plaster creates timeless appearance on both interior and exterior walls. Heavy linen drapes, handmade lamps, crafted joinery and stair balustrades are just some examples of custom made features that enhance the overall atmosphere. This property occupies an enclave of some of the largest and finest properties in this attractive coastal peninsula of Omokoroa. Tauranga city is about 20 minutes drive away, Auckland airport is two hours drive, Tauranga's airport half an hour away. The five year old home and its grounds have served a busy family well but would be equally magnificent for a couple to live in and offer exclusive accommodation. The Bay of Plenty is a thriving New Zealand province known for its coastal beauty, native bush covered ranges and huge swathes of golden beach. Ataahua Lodge is a beautiful base from which to enjoy it - it is the Ultimate in design, quality, luxury and comfort.
