Set on the Whangateau Harbour along quiet Riverside Drive, this is a home where the view never stands still. The tide ebbs and flows, the light shifts through the day, and the interior has been rebuilt to embrace it all, drawing in the water views and sunshine for the ultimate coastal lifestyle. Upstairs, a refined but relaxed interior unfolds, where warm timber, natural light and broad harbour views set the tone. Living, kitchen and bedrooms all sit on one level, so daily life and entertaining flow together with ease. Original timber floors bring character, and a wood burner with central heating keeps the home warm and welcoming year round. The living spaces open onto the main deck, a natural setting for early coffee, long summer lunches and evenings that stretch well past sunset. The primary bedroom has its own private balcony, a quieter vantage point for watching the harbour change through the day. The accommodation suits family life and visiting guests equally well. The principal suite is generous, with a walk-in wardrobe and ensuite, and the second bedroom is notably spacious. A bunk room with its own adjoining lounge creates a separate retreat for children or guests, ideal for holiday living. A second bathroom and a separate powder room complete the layout. The grounds feel like an established coastal garden rather than a formal landscape. Mature magnolias and hydrangeas share space with guava, persimmon, feijoa and grapefruit trees. The flat rear lawn is a standout, with a private gate opening directly onto the reserve. Double internal-access garaging is joined by a dedicated workshop, and a bore plus two water tanks provide a generous supply for the garden and for washing down the boat. Beyond the gate, the Matakana Coast is on your doorstep. Omaha and Tawharanui are close by, as are the vineyards, restaurants, markets and boutiques of Matakana Village. It is a place to switch off completely while staying connected to the best of the region. Rebuilt 5 years ago and held by the same family for 22 years, this is a rare chance to secure a substantial waterfront home in one of Point Wells' most tightly held pockets. A beautiful house, and a way of life built around the harbour, the outdoors and the simple pleasures of the coast.
