The perfect luxury retreat. Furnished in neutrals, skylit spaces allows nature in while offering privacy. Sliding doors open to a massive deck with sitting area / table seating. Enjoy the view of a natural reserve from the hot tub all year round. There is a double bed upstairs; 2 minor bedrooms for two guests each (double trundle beds); and an office in the loft above the kitchen. Walk to gorgeous Arundel Reserve beach/Orewa via Alice Eaves walkway. Park 100m away. Our house is an architecturally designed retreat built to a high quality by a master builder. Scandi style furnishings and plants compliment the natural woods. There are three levels - a massive living and entertaining area that opens onto a flat garden with reserve views, a barbecue and a spa pool; two guest bedrooms (each with a quality trundle bed / listed as ‘double bed’ suitable for two adults or kids) and a toilet and bathroom with bath/walk-in luxury shower on level 2; and a master bedroom (queen bed) on level 3 with en-suite. There is an aircon in the main area and the master bedroom. We remove most of our personal things when guests book in, but please help yourself to baking supplies, board games etc. There are quite a few stairs between the levels (8 stairs up to the bathroom from ground level and 8 more to the minor rooms, for instance) but they are extremely well lit and wide. If your child is confident with stairs then please hit “book”.
