29 Rothschild Terrace, Te Whau

Embrace the beauty of each day from the first morning light on the bay to spectacular sunsets against a silhouette of the Waitākere Ranges, cityscape and Rangitoto. This elevated utopia offers the best of Waiheke lifestyle on the Te Whau Peninsula.
A sweeping driveway leads to the private, north-facing residence, nestled into the natural contour of the land. This spacious home is thoughtfully designed around a central, light-filled stairwell and lift, connecting its three levels and including an all-weather entryway from the double garage.
The mid-level houses a guest bedroom, bathroom with a sunken bath and office/library. On the upper level, a separate lounge room with an open fireplace frames stunning city views across the Tamaki Strait. Overlooking the glistening water of Putiki Bay, a large kitchen and dining area spills onto a split-level deck, where birdsong and sea breezes weave a melody of peace.
The main bedroom and ensuite serve as a private sanctuary, capturing the silken shimmer of moonlight on the water before the glow of dawn kisses the forest tree tops below the terraced orchard.
Beyond the home, a world of natural wonder and romance awaits. A boutique, productive olive grove, with its own driveway, leads to a hilltop offering a breath-taking panorama. The "wild wood", featuring a serene, meandering walk, is located alongside the olive grove and boasts a collection of sacred and native trees, including Rimu, Totara, and Kauri.
On the waterside lies the meadow, offering intimate views of Oakura Bay, all contributing to the magic of this land. A stone stairway leads to a secluded sandy bay with inviting waters for a refreshing swim.
Here, the possibilities are as boundless as the sea; redefine the tenure, reimagine the home - expand it into a grander vision- or craft a personal version of luxury. The property could also welcome a charming visitor cottage among the olive trees, an infinity pool mirroring the sea and sky, or a tranquil yoga studio in the meadow.
This is a legacy, a haven - a place to call home, forever.
