37 Wilma Road, Ostend, Waiheke Island

The ultimate tree house hideaway

This delightful, spic and span home shoots up through impressive ancient trees to find the sun in a spectacular forest setting.
A neat pathway through a serene, leafy locale opens up to the tidy, vertical building that pays homage to its impressive surrounds, with nods of timber and natural colours throughout.
Set on three floors, the entry level has two double bedrooms with built-in double wardrobes and French doors to a neat patio area, as well as a bathroom with shower over the bath.
Up above is the open-plan living, kitchen and dining space which, with its macrocarpa benchtops and gorgeous exposed timber ceiling, feels just like a tranquil tree house, but with the added bonus of all the mod cons, including a heat pump.
This lovely space opens to a delightful, semi-covered deck where you can listen to the kaka and other native species filling the air with birdsong.
Below the home is the laundry and studio space - an excellent home office retreat - as well as an under-house storage area.
And more decks and garden can be found back at the entry level, with a further herb/vegetable bed ready for summer plantings.
The well-established pathways and decks allow easy access around the garden, where you can look forward to harvesting your tropical and subtropical fruits.
Banana, guava, fig and avocado are planted around the place, as well as cherimoya, golden peach, lemon, orange and grapefruit.
With sealed, off-road parking, everything is as neat as a pin at this private, sheltered property, which borders a farm to the rear, with the Te Toki Reserve dog-friendly park over the road.
Take a stroll over the causeway path to the Ostend hub, or head in the other direction to popular Palm Beach for summer swims.
