A sweeping tree-lined driveway sets the tone to arrive at "Pininoa" - 83 Point Wells Road. Set on a private, 5666sqm waterfront site, the original mid-century home was redesigned by Graham Sawell and completely rebuilt to exacting standards four years ago. The owners wanted to retain the original character and charm and the rebuild has allowed this, delivering a home of warmth, sophistication and calm.

From the front door you are drawn through to a sizeable chef's kitchen designed to enjoy the water views featuring extensive granite benches, high end appliances and abundant pantry and cupboard space. Double doors lead out to a large sun drenched deck complete with open fire and pizza oven, overlooking an infinity pool.

Custom craftsmanship and fine materials are seamlessly incorporated with light and nature throughout the living areas, showcasing traditional and contemporary design elements.

The spacious dining room and lounge with floor to ceiling windows and open fire, has an adjoining TV room/snug at one end and a gorgeous covered loggia for indoor/outdoor living. Louvred windows on two sides keep it cool on hot summer days whilst retaining views down the river.

A sunny, private, master bedroom with walk in wardrobe and tiled ensuite, opens to the deck and enjoys stunning views to the water as does the main guest bedroom. There is also a large bunk room for children.

Cherished gardens, an established orchard, specimen trees and tree hut make this property perfect for grand entertaining or private relaxation with uninterrupted views plus all day sun. Rolling lawns lead down to the water where everyone can swim, paddle board, kayak or fish.

A separate laundry and double garage complete the main house. A stand alone triple garage and huge workshop will accommodate cars and boat, plus there's a home office or additional bedroom with scope to add a bathroom.

This is a very rare waterfront offering in the charming garden village of Point Wells, close to shops, wineries and Matakana or five minutes to O
