124 Delamore Drive, Oneroa

The position is adroitly poised above the bay, along the western flank of the ridge, tucked in with year-round sun and the immersive hum of tide, birdlife and calm. Brace for the full drama of bobbing boats, immediate headlands and orca dancing in the bay. You might even spy blue penguins nesting among the rocks from your lighthouse balcony.

Arrive before disembarking with easy amphibious boat access, or enjoy a three-minute stroll from Matiatia Wharf via the coastal track. Cocktail hour is enticed by the grand piano and bar - this capacious home boasts a lower-level suite and guest apartment, each with decking nooks overlooking immaculate terraced grounds, a plunge pool and a new cabana.

Your illustrious terrains adjacent include an orchard, an olive grove and an additional building zone – all with accessibility to the beach.

This is a land-and-house legacy opportunity which radiates potential as far as your family can fathom.

Our sellers are not even slightly confused — their Matiatia marvel is beyond-rare but could not be more available.
