Set in the foothills of Drury overlooking Karaka you will find this sprawling contemporary home that is loaded with 'X-factor'. Drury shops are close by as is Ramarama School and Strathallan, and the motorway is only 2 minutes away.
Here, at first light you awaken to the soft sound of Tui's and Wood pigeons in the morning as the sun hits the house. This well designed home boasts high ceilings and floor to ceiling windows making you conscious of your beautiful native surroundings. There is 370m2 of open living space and 230m2 of attractive wrap around decking to enjoy.
Adjacent to the house is 4 car garaging and above in the loft is generous guest accommodation including an ensuite, ideal for extended family or overseas guests. There is ample undercover parking for cars, boats or a campervan also.
Set on 8000m2 (2 acres), there is plenty to explore, volcanic rock sculptures, your very own trickling stream and a lush private bushwalk. Here you are with nature, surrounded by 100 year old native flora and fauna and exquisite Nikau palms. If you value the essence of 100% pure New Zealand you must view this kiwi oasis.
The paddock comes complete with two friendly pet sheep (Muggles and Puggles), and offers a fantastic area for families to enjoy, or a quiet retreat area.
At the end of a long day, kick off your shoes and relax enjoying a Shiraz by the schist open fireplace before you head out under the stars to the spa. Here, you can take-in the sunset, soak and unwind from the day and enjoy the views to Sky Tower and the Manukau heads.. Bliss!

With 36 years of experience selling in Beachlands/Maraetai and 40 years of experience selling houses and businesses in the wider Auckland region, Peter has been committed to real estate right from the beginning. “I started selling real estate in 1972 for Charles Belton Real Estate in Remuera Road†Peter says. Specializing in high end properties in Remuera and Parnell, Peter’s first sale went for $26,000 - a sum which was well over twice the average price at the time. In the same year, Peter sold a 10 bedroom home on 1 ¼ acres for $128,000, setting a new record for Parnell. Two years later, a move to Wrightsons NMA in St Luke’s shopping centre saw him selling businesses, industrial and commercial properties. After two years, and as an associate member of the Real Estate Institute of New Zealand (AREINZ), Peter moved to Beachlands where he established Beachlands Real Estate. Peter has been a committed member of the Beachlands and Maraetai community; he has served in committees for Beachlands School, Te Puru and Lions, to name a few, and has sponsored many activities in the area. “When I moved to Beachlands, my oldest child was five,†says Peter, “now, four of my grandchildren are living in Beachlands and my son is working in the business.†During this time living in, selling in, and enjoying Beachlands and Maraetai, Peter has built up a number of local investors, whose trust in Peter has led them to regularly buy from him as well as choose him to manage many of their properties. “I believe the key to selling these unique properties is to reach as wide an audience as possible.†Peter says, “Harcourts, as a superbrand, have the tools to do this superbly.â€
