Matakana home by the sea

With air that is infused with the scent of the ocean, the sights of the glorious Matakana countryside and crystal waters of Kawau Bay, as well as the sounds of a multitude of native birds, this truly is a home for all senses and all seasons. The captivating and expansive sea views from almost every room of this stylish coastal home at the end of Green Road in the heart of Matakana are hard to beat. Number 8 Martin Road is not just a home, but a sanctuary. A spacious residence on close to 1300sqm that captures the watercolour landscape and its surrounds. Where its charming character and elevated coastal ambience exceeds all expectations as a haven for families and friends to gather and connect. Boasting almost 300 square metres of living including five bedrooms, two living rooms, three bathrooms, double internal access garaging and substantial decks, it offers expansive outdoor leisure spaces and effortless connection to the gardens, lawn, and heated 12.5m lap pool. Beautifully renovated and casually contemporary, amongst many subtle enhancements is a stunning bespoke kitchen, commissioned from renowned cabinetmaker Neil Taylor. His brief was to create an open, light filled Cape Cod aesthetic, with a considered layout, culinary essentials and copious storage to connect superbly to breakfast, dining and entertaining rooms where vaulted timber lined ceilings, oak floors, and an eye-catching fireplace feature. As well as an inspired vista from every room, the elevated position and mature trees ensure no sense of immediate neighbours. In addition to the main driveway with double internal garaging and plenty of off-street parking, a separate entrance connects to lower Martin Road where the concrete boat ramp, kayak stand, and esplanade reserve are only a few steps away. Offering epic sea views, peace and tranquility, this gorgeous home will host families, friends and guests with ease and promises comfort, serenity, and morning sun across the breakfast room. Known locally as Rainbows End, this small coastal settlement epitomises the essence of a tightly knit Matakana community with the Saturday markets, cafes, cinema, and primary school a mere 4-minute drive or a 3.5km walk with dog in tow.
