142 Rocklands Road, Golden Bay, Tasman, Nelson / Tasman, 7183, New Zealand
Looking for a slice of paradise in beautiful Golden Bay? This is a unique property with everything you could want. This 4 bedroom family home & self-contained studio-workshop is located in a very sought after location in Golden Bay.
Nestled in an elevated & sheltered locality, the unique microclimate in this area has contributed to the abundant growth of subtropical, exotics & natives. Also, the bountiful food basket of fruit & nut trees on this 7.3 hectare property. Karst limestone outcrops & terraces on the property provide multiple climates for varying plants.
The home blends into the environment with a NZ redwood & red beech exterior. Redwood ceilings feature inside. This rustic home exudes a feeling of “Pacifica” on arrival & is built to passive solar principles, for cooler temperatures in summer & warmth in winter. A Bosky burner with radiators & open-air convection fire ensures cosiness through the cooler seasons. And on hot summer days the 11.5m pool is perfect for cooling off.
Open living areas in the home are spacious, with outstanding views & outlook over the lush garden & bush, to mountains & the sea. Bromeliads, orchids & nikau palms contribute to the subtropical feel surrounding the home. A magnificent panoramic view is showcased from the main bedroom upstairs – Motupipi estuary & a full sweep of Golden Bay from the Kahurangi ranges to the coast, Collingwood to Farewell Spit.
The two-storey studio/workshop complex is over 100m2, self-contained & quite separate, providing multi-use potential. Classic sheds on the property include a 6m x 12m implement shed. Rural residential zoning provides potential for future subdivision of this 7.3 Ha property.
A summerhouse for alfresco dining is another special place on the property. There is so much to explore here. Twilight is spectacular & the decks enveloping this home encourage pre-dinner drinks & appreciation of the plentiful birdsong & paradise found.
