1 Yncyca Bay, Pelorus Sound, Marlborough

Catch of the day in Yncyca Bay

This property in Yncyca Bay is most certainly, the catch of the day. Not by a little, but by a lot, and in more than one way.

After a swift and scenic 35 minute ride down the Pelorus Sound from Havelock, your boat will turn off the main sound and head towards the morning sun in the east. Nearing the head of the bay, a montage of tall natives, including massive stands of Nikau palms and Black Pongas envelope your passage. The recently built floating jetty marks the arrival to your retreat and provides safe parking for your boat in any weather. A trusty four wheeled motorbike and trailer ensures all visitors and supplies an effortless end to the journey, via the short gravel track right to the parking area.

Opening the front door of your two year old home away from homes you will be met with a rush of warm air, heavily entwined with the sweet scent of the cedar cladding and macrocarpa exposed beams. Naturally, you could set about opening some the of the six sliding doors that span the whole northern side of the dwelling to truly immerse yourself in the surrounding nature and its melodies as you begin to unpack. Once your supplies have been safely stored in the tastefully designed kitchen, and your luggage dispersed to one of the four bedrooms, pour yourself a drink and let the fun begin.

Few homes boast indoor and outdoor entertaining like this. The jaw dropping 138sqm deck best described as a 'sun trap' has been perched perfectly to make the most of the vast views down to the bay, as well as squeezing in the last of the evening sun. The cosy living area is adorned with an equally impressive meter wide open fire, encompassed in exquisite stone work. Carrying on the 'big' theme is the bathroom, with a thumping big double shower as well as double basin that even has its own bush views.

4,189sqm of north facing, native cloaked, prime sounds real estate has been complimented perfectly with a very tastefully constructed 142sqm secluded sanctuary.
