Cooks Gate Lodge has a commanding presence from its superbly elevated position overlooking 9.5 hectares of pasture and landscaped gardens with sweeping views capturing Mercury Island in the distance to the Purangi River and Cooks Beach below.
On arrival you are greeted by an expansive and impressive entrance which leads into a large lobby that flows to the "great room", incorporating an entertainer's kitchen, large dining and lounge area dominated by a large open fireplace.
Leading from this area is a media room, both these areas leading onto north facing decks, patios.
Upon entering this luxurious Italian/European inspired villa this Darren Jessop designed property has been built to a grand scale and the high quality of the construction is clearly evident with premium fixtures and fittings used throughout.
The lower floor features a plush generously sized suite, with a private patio where guests can sit under a canopy of vines with views out to the sea.
The East wing provides a further three private well-appointed suites including a family suite that offers a kitchen and lounge area.
Up the sweeping staircase a large open plan suite incorporates bedding, lounge areas and bathroom facilities and offers cosy and intimate spaces with expansive sea views from the balcony.
Extensive parking, a marquee area and a helicopter pad provides the opportunity to continue to run this lodge as the perfect wedding venue and high end accommodation or to make this your dream family home. The choices are all yours.
