Unsurpassed Elegance
one of waikanae’s most recognised homes, 70 te moana road
is a modern classic, blending georgian architectural elegance with a
beautifully curated décor and contemporary craftsmanship. passing through the
iron gates, anticipation builds for the grand residence ahead.
a pathway leads to the main home, and an oamaru stone-clad
façade, adorned with creeping greenery, exudes timeless charm, with the
impeccable attention to detail reflecting a true labour of love. a light-filled
hallway serves as the home′s spine, offering teasing glimpses of the lush
surrounds. to one side, the formal living room is a masterclass in harmony,
with high-stud ceilings, elegant wooden windows, a sculptural fireplace, and
refined furnishings. opposite, a richly atmospheric study boasts parquet flooring
and sophisticated bespoke joinery.
upstairs, four beautifully appointed bedrooms feature
classic sash windows and a tasteful colour palette. the master suite is a
luxurious retreat, complete with a walk-in robe, ensuite, and a mosaic adorned,
reinforced balcony—perfectly suited for a future spa. a stylish family shower
room completes this level.
the heart of the home is the expansive kitchen, dining,
and family area. designed for both function and flair, the dual-island kitchen
features yet more exquisite joinery, seamlessly integrating with the family
living area. a striking picture window frames the tranquil rear garden, while a
circular window, set high in the chapel ceilings, allows the last light of day
to permeate the room.
outdoor living is exceptional, with a vast patio offering
multiple sun-drenched areas and a stunning pool. beyond, the impeccably
landscaped grounds transport you to a european idyll, with tiered box hedging,
water features, manicured lawns, and abundant vegetable gardens and fruit trees,
all sustained by a plentiful bore water supply.
the home is as practical as it is beautiful, featuring
toughened glass windows in wooden frames, gas central heating, a stylish double
wood burner, and pre-wired space for an internal lift. the two-storey ancillary building, designed
and finished to the same exacting standards as the main home features a
beautifully appointed one-bedroom flat up above—a light-filled retreat in
french provincial style, successfully run as an airbnb. the ground floor space features a double
garage, yet another stylish shower room, a workshop area and abundance of
storage.
meticulously crafted, 70 te moana road is a truly special,
captivating home, and a one off that won’t fail to capture the imagination.
