Export yourself to a magical ‘Life & Leisure’ magazine setting for 2023!… If you’ve contemplated a change of pace, away from the corporate madness and traffic, then this incredibly cool and unique property with a vibe to match, is worth discovering. The magnificent large scale architectural building was originally a working winery and restaurant and home to all things fun. This is the creation of Award winning architect Richard Naish who ensured the building was engineered to the nth degree – with concrete tilt slab and solid Macrocarpa construction – and a loading of 5000kg per square metre to hold large tanks of wine. A mix of edgy coolness is blended with bucket loads of character and stunning extended outdoor living areas that offer incredible entertainment value and views. The current owners had a vision to create a fun family home and that is exactly what they have done for both the humans and the animals. Two out of four bedrooms are equivalent to ‘Pods on wheels’ to create cosy bedrooms and privacy within a unique family wing of the property. There is another lounging room with a piano to ensure break out space away from the main open plan dining and living rooms. A fifth pod is utilised as an office and has another loft bed for sleepovers. Perfectly nestled into one of the best locations in the Matakana region overlooking stunning valleys of grapes, native bush, Olives and pasture with sunsets to die for. A commercial kitchen, bar area and enormous entrance doors are all brilliant features along with the incredible stud height that will ensure you can utilise additional mezzanine space if required.

Beneath this beautiful home you can witness the fantastic engineering and structure along with more fun spaces including stables and plenty of storage. There is a water bore, ‘food bank’ and a large sand arena that has been utilised for show jumping. This area has fantastic sea views and could be an excellent building site. A secondary dwelling provides income or extended family accommodation and the established native bush is home to NZ’s most rare birdlife.

There has never been a better time to throw caution to the wind and make your dreams a reality… Life is short, don’t let it pass you by without exploring the fun of ‘Petite Chateau’ You simply won’t look back given the new motorway completion is near, you have sea as your playground and safe, self sufficient lifestyle living is increasingly sought after. Your friends will thank you for the opportunity to visit and experience this exquisite property.
