This magnificent block overlooking beautiful Owhanake Bay is one of the last opportunities to build from scratch on exclusive Delamore Drive.

The no-through road, leading from the top of Oneroa village to the end of an exquisite peninsula, comprises a stretch of stunning lifestyle properties with awesome horizons on either side. The site sits within the private gated end of the Matiatia Estate.

It is a magical, north-east facing landholding with an abundance of sunshine and native birdsong, that stretches down to the water's edge.

At the lower end of the property, the 1.774 hectare (4.38 acres, more or less) lifestyle block is connected to Waiheke's lauded Te Ara Hura - the beautiful walking network of tracks that circle the island.

Take the 'coastal route' tramping track and meander down one side of this beautiful block to Owhanake Bay, all the while feeling the thrill of being engulfed in a pristine, peaceful hub of nature.

Any home built on this land would enjoy stunning views of the bay, the Owhanake peninsula and wider Hauraki Gulf with the possibility of glimpses back to Auckland City.

The world renowned Delamore Lodge and a handful of other beautifully developed properties overlooking Owhanake Bay are nestled in their own private acreages on the surrounding hills.

On the opposite side of the gently curved bay, are the rolling hills of the Owhanake peninsula and the glittering Hauraki Gulf, with the northern Waiheke coastline and distant Coromandel peninsula providing the backdrop.

It's an idyllic scene, with nikau palms, cabbage trees and manuka blossom in the mix of enchanting flora all around.

So close to Oneroa village and the Matiatia ferry, this privileged neighbourhood feels remarkably remote while being near to the main amenities.

Whether a huge, impressive compound with pool is in your sights, or a smaller, more modest design, it's time to bring your architect and start dreaming your own unique escape or legacy project for generations to enjoy.
