178 Hamilton Road, Matakana, Rodney

Divinely Mediterranean

What a showstopper in the country! This Mediterranean-style home set on 1.68 hectares is an exquisite blend of all things vine, orchard and grove. Found within Matakana's exclusive wine community, less than an hour north of Auckland, this rare opportunity will promise an incredible lifestyle to an astute buyer.

Proudly sitting on a high plateau and surrounded by pasture, native bush, grape vines, an olive grove and sumptuous landscaping, this four-bedroom home sits in perfect harmony with its wine growing profile. Ever productive, ever boutique and beautiful - grapes are merlot and cabernet sauvignon and very capable of producing delicious, top quality red wine. Be sure to find out more. Built to embrace nature's finest offerings, the property delivers when it comes to courtyard entertaining, sunshine hours and countryside vistas.

Striking landscaping is a vibrant nod to a Tuscany inspired theme. The vibe is carried on indoors where a large kitchen with granite bench and a spacious butler's pantry is the hub of the home. Reaching out from the kitchen is a tiled dining room with exposed trusses and a gas fireplace. An opulent formal lounge has a wood fireplace and French doors lead to a further patio - what a spot for lively soirees!

Tucked away on the ground level is the master bedroom, overlooking a gorgeous inlaid pool and courtyard. Sweeping upstairs you'll find two bedrooms, each with Juliette balconies, a family bathroom, plus a study (or additional bedroom).

Working the land requires sensible utility areas, everything has been considered - an internal laundry, a bathroom just off the garden area, and a double garage. In addition to the main residence, a one-bedroom weekender has proved incredibly popular as a B and B establishment. Overlooking the vines, peaceful and private, Merlot studio is charming.
